The space shuttle Discovery is safely on it's way into orbit. I can relax now.
Launch was a beautiful sight, and I just hope I get a chance to be down in Florida ocne to see it before it retires in 2010.
Ever since Challenger in 1986, I've always been nervous about the launches. You listen for the "go at throttle up" and know that's when the accident happened back 20 years ago. You hope and pray that everything's okay, and breathe a small sigh of relief when the SRBs let loose. And then you nervously wait for over six more minutes, until you near the MECO call, and know they are nearly in orbit.
Here's to a great mission guys!!!
