I clicked on that, I'm way too late to see the launch but glad it went okay. They just showed a video that had the little insignia/patch for the mission, I was counting the names in it (six total), and then was amused when I noticed that at the bottom of the patch the name "Anderson" was added.
I've never seen a live launch of anything at NASA. I was in college when the first flights were being made, and there were always delays. I knew people who drove down to see the launch (about an 8 hour drive from Atlanta) and with all the delays and such, it was always a crap shoot whether they got to actually see a launch or not. I've always wanted to see a launch. I hear it's awesome. I got cousins in DeLand, I should go down and hang out around the time of a future scheduled launch...
The technology to get people into orbit safely is incredible. Going up 120 miles is hardly 1/10th of it. The other 9/10ths is getting the tin can with people in it moving at seven miles per second. Actually there's yet another 9/10ths, getting those people stopped without them being splattered all over the place. I never "take a breath" until the thing comes to a stop on the landing strip. And now with the ISS, there's always been someone up there in some tin can, even with the scarce Shuttle flights since Columbia came apart. So really I'm ALWAYS holding my breath.
