Try, Try Again
We're going to head up north and see what we can see. Primary location criterion will be clear skies to the north-northeast, up the coast, as far north as we can get before launch time.

Just got back. We watched it from Hutchinson Island, on the beach. There was one cloud that obscured part of the ascent, but we saw most of it until SRB burnout. Maybe a pic later, but I've got to go get ribs on the grill.

Looks like a clean launch. Did not see anything fall off that wasn't supposed to.

I saw some stuff come off the tank late in the flight, but the glare from the earth made it impossible to tell if it hit anything. It was in the view from the camera on the ET, maybe 2 minutes before tank separation.

I posted a number of images of the launch on my blog.
