We were total space shuttle junkies. Drove over to watch shuttle launches for the last two years of the program, including multiple trips due to scrubbed launches. The night launches were beyond spectacular.

Docking is complete.

I can see the launches sitting in my chair and looking out the window. The night launches are easy to see and sometimes put on a spectacular show. I can see the boost back and reentry burns of the first stage, but I’m not close enough to see the landing burns.
