aesmael: (Me)
    I said yesterday there was not much to say. Well, there was at least one thing. I saw live for the first time the launch of a space mission, that of the shuttle Endeavor. I found it more moving than I expected and so it serves as another reminder that to read of something is not the same as to experience it.

    Last night I also managed to write 223 words which, although bad, still Count.

Was it a night launch? Those are always the best. Whenever there is one coming up it is definately worth to go see another one. The sky lights up and it looks like day.

18:36 EDT. What's really great are the launches just before sunrise or just after sunset, when the sun is up at altitude but not on the ground. You get some really neat effects involving the exhaust plume.

Nope, day launch. Must have been afternoon though, I saw it early in the morning. Now I have to see a night launch too.
