Super Bowl and the Shuttle Launch

(Super Bowl 44)

Of course the team Bear was rooting for (Saints) Won :D

I'll have to tell that story later....

(Space Shuttle Endeavor)

This was so awesome to watch...

A huge fire ball ascending into the heavens.

Wow!

I totally didn't take either of these pictures, both are google images, but it sure would have been cool to watch in real life. As it was we watched both on TV only a few hours from their actual locations. :(

Its okay I did get to see the shuttles fireball from nearly 60 miles away, I could even hear it, it was pretty cool, though I know it would have been a whole lot cooler to see it up close.

Perhaps someday we will get another chance to see both events in real life.

Its possible...

Space Shuttle Launch

Do you ever watch Curious George, like on PBS?

Well you know Dr. Wisemen and the other scientists that are always recruiting the man with the yellow hat to do space missions? You know how a silly problem will arise and Dr. Wisemen will say,

"Looks like we'll have to scrub the mission,"

Welp that is pretty much what has happened this morning.

NASA has scrubbed the mission due to a cloud blanket above the launch site.

Oh well,

We can always try to come tomorrow morning, which is when the launch has been rescheduled for.

Man I feel disappointed, but I can't help but wonder how the astronauts are feeling. I mean they were all strapped into their seats and everything.
