Some very unique and seldom-seen perspectives of a launch.

I just witnessed my first space shuttle landing. Not quite as
thrilling as a launch but still something fun to see. It all happened
so fast. I get off the cruise ship in Port Canaveral, Fl and start
driving home. I see thousands of cars/people lined up along the road
and then hear the double crack of the lander breaking the sound
barrier. I pull off the road just in time to see it fly in for a
landing at Kennedy space center. And that was it. Not even enough
time to get out the camera.
