I can see the NASA assembly building from the shore line, or watch it from my front porch :). Maybe I'll load up Miss Daisy and DW and go see it from the beach?
 
For those who missed it this morning. Skip ahead to the 14 minute mark for launch. EDIT: Sorry, that should have read 10 minute mark.

Satellites made it but they lost the booster. This booster was on it's 4th mission. Saw some spray off to the right on the recover ship so it may have just run out of gas. They plan these launches to use all the propellant going up, then bring it back on fumes. With unpredicted winds aloft they can sometimes use more propellant than expected in the landing and simply run out of gas. Last time this happened the first stage was in tact and floating. So they just pulled it back to the cape floating in the ocean. It was not used again but I'll bet there were some good parts left.
