One of the greatest things I witnessed whilst in Florida years back was the shuttle going up. Wasn't even intending to see it, I was at my golf-hotel on the main freeway next to Disney World (Orange something? Can't remember the name, years ago) and saw the live newscast on CNN or something. Went outside just to look into the skies, hoping for nothing, and there she was... literally dead ahead of me as I walked out of the villa door. Silver bullet with a beautiful flaming plume flying up at a speed incomparable to anything else. Definitely one of the most awe-inspiring sights I have seen.
