Re: pic: SpaceX 3:44 AM History
Winner of coolest picture I've seen yet is this one, where EPCOT's Mission Space building makes an X with the path of the rocket.
More cool facts:
The Falcon 9 had on board the ashes of Mercury Astronaut Gordon Cooper, the 6th American in space. It also carried the ashes of James Doohan, who played Scotty in the original Star Trek series.
Check out the official launch video from SpaceX. The coolest part isn't the launch, its at 12:50... go there, and keep watching.
Want to witness for yourself history and the making? Go to www.heavensabove.com and track when the dragon capsule goes over your house. You can see it with the naked eye. In a couple days, you'll see both the space station and dragon go by together.
