We watched the last one about a month or two ago.  It's launching from Wallops Island in VA.   Launch window is 7:30 - 9:30.  Last time NASA had a live feed via the internet and they launched right at the beginning of the launch window.

 

Watch the South horizon from somewhere without trees or buildings.  It does not go straight up.  It travels toward the East.  Last time you could see several stages fire over 3 or 4 minutes.

 

It was very worth it.  Hoping to see something cool again.

Back in the late 80s when I lived in St. Pete Fl. I could see the space shuttle launches from my condo balcony. Day time launches I could only see the vapor trail, but night time launches you could see the orange glow of the booster rockets.

I hope it hits DC.

I just saw the updated launch time is 8:15. I wish I could see it but we've got trees all around

Thank you guys for posting this, think i'll go out to the same place I watched the last one from.

Wish I wasn't at work and I could drive somewhere to try and see it.

Watching it on TV on the NASA channel.

+1 plus good excuse for me to get a break from work lol.

man i just missed it. i was pooping and hurried up to run outside only to have a neighbor walking back from the school field with his son talking about it on the phone. so im 0 for 2. hurried poop and missed rocket.

FML. I can't believe I missed this.

 

I;m so pissed.

Was outside but still missed it. Dammit!

Too much light and blockage - shudda gone to the back 40 to watch

Watched with my 7 yr old.. Something for him to tell the class tomorrow..pretty neato!

I think the first launch I saw from Wallops was a bit more impressive, simply because the sky was quite a bit darker.  The moon kinda washed out the trail, which was pretty cool to see.

 

I only read this thread about 25 minutes before liftoff, so I am kinda sad I didn't get to photograph this...camera lens woulda fogged up and I'd get a slightly red blurry line.  One of these days, I'll capture a launch...maybe even go down to south Jersey...

Edited so as not to screw anything up, carry on

Saw it. Real cool. Thanks for the tip

Saw it, very cool!
