I was in Orlando last year when they launched a space shuttle, so I drove to Canaveral to watch it. Was going to drive back to watch the landing as well but went to California to land due to bad weather. :'( :'( :'(
What a spectacle. :) :) :) :) :)
Brilliant

Can I ask why they have done the animation and then attached a space shuttle to the front? I know its just to show that they Space Shuttle took people up there, but unless they are planning to bolt one to the front, I dont think they need to connect it to the animation do they??

Would love to see one of these go up,,, Must be amazing to see..
