yea I have. I have seen 3. one at night. it is an amazing thing, and I was pissed that I could not drive up there for the drive for this launch. maybe by the next proposed launch I can make it.
but ofcourse, everything must be 100% and any problem must be fixed before it becomes fatal. on top of that, they have usually delayed shuttle missions until they find out the reason the last one went bad. I was not alive during Challenger, but I am sure they did something like when the Columbia accident occurred.
anyways back to bed
