I had some better luck back in 2007
![]() But still I remember back in 1969 watching a black and white no more then 8 years old THE landing. That's why I still, after 3 times, shiver walking under the Saturn V at KSC. Do you know why the launch was scrubbed? |

LOL,You talk funny
(truth be told,i am just jealous,i am from New York City,so my accent sounds like ).....As far as the SpaceX launch,it was strange when it happened,all 9 engines fired-the boom fell back,then it all just shut off ......It ended that one of the 9 motors had a temp sensor go off,so it shut all motors down .But i live so close and watch every launch at the cape,a scrub does not bother me,i will just go down there again on the next try....but i always feel bad for all the people i talk to that came from so far away.You to are a lucky man,i would have to think ANY person that has witnessed a Shuttle launch,will remember for there whole life of how amazing they were,and how they can make the whole earth shake under your feet,and the things that go through your mind as you watch.....The power and speed was just AMAZING.

LOL,i tried it in 3 different modes,i have been messing with this thing all day,that video just of course loaded fastest
...The HD was way worse,plus there is a problem with the mic.....I called them up and told them they sold me a Jacked Up Rag...So they said "Bring it on back,and we will see what we can do"...so i said "i am on my way" so i drive 25 minutes back down there,and they are locking the doors and tell me i need to come back monday .....MAN,some people are just lucky i do not respond to how my emotions tell me to
