I marvel at the fact that I’ve never seen any of the Space Shuttle launches before. The program is scheduled to end in 2010 so I better take advantage. I didn’t know how big an event a launch was until I started watching some videos on You Tube.  Seeing one defintely takes effort but the payoff is amazing. Here are the tentative mission dates posted on NASA’s website. Below is a very cool Endeavor launch earlier this year. Enlarge the You Tube player for the full effect.
