My coworker got the Spaceflight Awareness Award and gets to sit in the VIP section for the last launch. I am very jealous.

Great photos!! I will be there for the shuttle launch... unless it gets scrubbed. Going to try viewing from Titusville. Any recommendations as to how early to get there and where to go? Lost the lottery for causeway tickets and the Tour Bus route was too costly for a family of 4. |

Good luck. The hotel here says to come "as early as possible" because people start lining up the mainland shore from Cocoa to Titusville and further north at daybreak. I just found out we may be leaving for Marshall Space Flight Center next week, so I may not be here for the launch! :( --------------------------- Cameras: Nikon D90 gripped, Canon F-1 Speed Finder FN, Fujifilm F50se, Fujifilm J110W Lenses: Nikkor AF 50mm 1.8 D, DX AF-S 18-55mm 3.5-5.6 D VR, DX AF-S 18-105mm 3.5-5.6 G ED VR, AF-S 55-200mm 4-5.6 G ED VR, Canon FD 50mm 1.4, Canon FD 135mm 3.5, J.C.
