a thing of beauty
20:25
Today, after so many scrubs, after so many setbacks, we finally lit the fuse. =) I was there, in the thick of it all, working. I was even asked if I was "GO" for launch (I was, of course). I have been involved with quite a few missions now, watched the launches of even more, and it never gets old, never gets any less exciting. There are no words to describe the feeling of watching the shuttle rise into the air on a trail of smoke and fire, listening to the voice communications, unerstanding it all, being a part of it all.
