This photo of the launch complex, and all of the followng photos were taken several miles from the launch site from a spot on the 402 causeway.

  • I like this shot, you can see the tank and the bottom of the shuttle.
  • This photo shows the two external tanks falling away.
  • Not sure everthing that is going on here, and as photos go, it is truely bad, but at the same time it's sort of neat.
  • Similar to the last shot, but the dolphin is now looking back at a heart.
  • The cloud as the sun comes up more and it disapates.
  • Not sure what makes this color. While the sun is responsible, there might be some fuel making the red?
