Delta IV Launch - Wow

Boeing may be in trouble with the Government, but it sure
knows how to put on a show. Tonight's third Delta IV launch,
the first during daylight, was waayy cool with the slooowwwwly
rising rocket, the startling flashes caused by ice shedding
and RS-68 nozzle ablation, and, finally, the odd sight of
a rocket racing away without a smoky trail behind it. The
ground tracker camera image seemed especially sharp. Was the
range using a new tracker in the wake of the STS-107 problems?
