Roll call for the launch. Who is going and where are you viewing it from? Anyone meeting up before or after?

we will be getting up at 3 am to head to the cape, we are going to try jetty park first, then cherie down park, and if both are packed then to a friends house and watch it from their roof.... news here says 6 hour traffic jams in each direction... and forget getting a hotel room....packing lots of food and drinks and sun screen. It will be pure grid lock getting out, so not planning to try and meet anyone

Were going to be at Kennedy Space Center on the causeway. Word is traffic is going to be a mess. Our tickets said arrive 4 to 8 hours before the launch. I've brought a few books to read.

Does anyone know if ABC, NBC, CBS are going to be showing the launch? I have TV at work and would like to watch it on the larger screen.

Me too Marcy! I did read they were expecting about 700,000 spectators so maybe watching from home is going to be okay. I'm not much for crowds like that!

Endeavour scheduled for no earlier than MO launch
I'm sorry for everyone who made the trek to the Cape for the launch today and was disappointed by Endeavour not meeting all the criteria for a safe launch.
One other place you can always watch what's going on 'live' with a launch or on the International Space Station is on nasatv

A To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. hugs everyone. I'm sure there are lots of you who are disappointed; the planning, the "getting there", the drive, the wait...
Of course, the most important thing is that they astronauts depart and return safely, so hopefully while you're all there, you're making the best of it and having fun...
(((HUGS)))

Shelley, I was watching the link after they postponed the launch and there was Obama landing with his family and then hopping into helicopters. I felt like I had a front row seat watching them. I sent that link to others. Sorry for everyone who went and didn't see it. I hope they get to launch in a few days.

A To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. MAN!! I feel so bad for everyone who went and then didn't get to see the launch.
Michelle Pearson & I are still waiting to open the bottle of champagne. What with day jobs, husband/boyfriend, shows to get ready for we knew a trip from Alaska was not going to happen.
Thanks Kris for the link, I have lots of people standing by to let me know when the launch finally happens.

I so glad we went even though the mission was scrubbed. I'm even more excited now with visiting the KSC. Seeing the shuttle on the launch pad was pretty cool even though you could not get close to it. Here is a picture of the family and the shuttle on the launch pad. I'm not sure if we will be able to make it for the next launch but you never know To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
I have a lot more pictures on FB so friend me if you want to take a look.

I heard about this from one of the gals doing a lampworking demonstration at the RMBS Bead bazaar last month. So exciting! Looks like May 10th is the next launch date?
