I left a half hour before sunrise this morning. While traveling south on I-95 south of Daytona Beach I saw the Atlas 5 rocket launch from the Kenedy Space Center. Unfortunately, the photos do not do it justice. The gold flame from the rocket, which you can't see in the photo, is a beautiful gold that doesn't reproduce well at all on film or video. It is one of those things that you have to see in person to appreciate.
About 10 minutes after the launch, this is what it looks like.
Drove down to a private truck parking lot in Pompano, Beach for the night.
