I have seen them before and they are so awesome! Also been to VB and seen the launch pads. They are pretty awesome themselves! No picture signs all over however!

Darn, I live in the Sierras now and it is overcast tonight, and too many pine trees. I went on the back deck and can only see trees and clouds!

THAT WAS THE BEST LAUNCH I HAVE EVER WITNESSED FROM A DISTANCE. We got some shots, I'll see if I can post them.

Can normally see the dusk launches from here (near Fresno, CA), but no luck tonight...cloud cover came in from the southland and obscured the view...drats!

Spectacular view from Anaheim. Second stage light off was a BLAST (no pun intended). My 6 year old daughter just had a rocketry class a couple weeks ago--the "WOW"s and "OOO"s and "AHHHH"s were well worth the wait.

Just went outside to look. Very cool. Thanks for posting this. I have a great view in AZ but always seem to miss them.
