Well, now I won't have any reason to NOT let my kid stay up and watch it...lol... Do you think that Titusville will be crowded? That late on a Friday night?

Most likely, being it's Friday and it's at night. I've never been to one when it was not crowded. There will be people camping and RV's everywhere. Get there early, at least two hours, and you should be OK. Getting back is another adventure. If you don't feel like fighting the crowds or waste your time because it may be scrubbed again, just head east down 50 and there is a little parking lot / boat launch where it crosses the St. John river.

I went out on Monday night and am planning to head out there tomorrow if it is not scrubbed. I first saw a night launch about 20 years ago and with the Shuttle Program being phased out I am determined to see this one (if it launches). If you have never seen a launch in person, especially a night launch, it is definitely worth the time to head over to Titusville to see one.

I have selfish reasons for hoping it waits one more day.

In all the years I've been here I've never been over to see one. Tomorrow night I could go!

That being said, I hope all that goes get's a great show!

We were able to see it from here in Poinciana. It was neat to watch it go from bright orange fire to little silver dot that looked like a star as it flew off.
