Default Rookie here for question....

.... hopefully this is the right group for this... NASA is launching a
rocket next week and my family is going to be in Orlando... Is it
worth going to see or is it too far away to really get a good look?
If so, where is the best viewing point? Do they 'scrub' these mission
often? Thank you for any advice!

January 17: Atlas 5/Pluto New Horizons

Lockheed Martin Atlas 5 rocket with NASA's New Horizons mission to Pluto
from Pad 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Launch
window: 1:24 to 3:24 p.m. Mission can launch anytime during a window
extending to Feb. 14.


Keep an eye on the weather and I would suggest Jetty Park as a viewing
site......

Cape Canaveral is not that far. The Beeline (Beachline) 528 basically takes
your right there.

On or about Thu, 10 Aug 2006 12:34:19 -0400, solarsell made the sensational claim that:

your right there.


Gawd, I rolled my eyes a whole 360 degrees the first time I saw that new name.
