It is one of the things I regret not ever getting to see a shuttle launch. The closest I ever got was when I flew over Florida while a shuttle was on the pad.

I got super, super lucky and managed to get VIP tix for the last one. IIRC I took these pics on my iPhone 5

  • wow, that shot of it sitting on the pad is much cleaner than I'd have expected from that phone. i'm envious

    • I cheated somewhat. I had some good binoculars with me that day and I was juggling those in one hand while holding the iPhone to the eyepiece :)

      (and I checked, it was iPhone 4 not 5)
