We got a car pass and watched Endeavour launch last night on STS-126 from the NASA Causeway viewing site. It was awesome!
Elijah waits patiently for the launch. We got there almost 2 hours beforehand. Notice the nearly full moon out the window. A beautiful and clear night for a launch.
And we have liftoff! The picture doesn’t do it justice, because it lights up the night sky as if it were daylight!
We could see it almost all the way down to the horizon. Very cool.

That is just incredible. Witnessing a shuttle launch firsthand is on my list of Things I Must Do Someday.
