OMG! SO COOL!!!!!!! Share the picture? :)

Awesome!! :)

AWESOME!

It is very blurry, I was running too hard to focus properly! but it was SO COOL.

\o/

I bet Nichelle Nichols is in town for this. :D

Cool! That is a great picture.

I used to work on a flight line, at Edward's AFB, that was very close to where they would load the Shuttle on their special 747. You gotta love it!

I love very near to NASA Goddard, so they intentionally flew the shuttle right over us. It was so awesome. I heard the roar of the 747 and dashed outside with my camera trying to figure out where it was and then I could see -- it looked much more awesome with the naked eye than with my camera, which was not zoomed properly in my haste!! It had a little jet flying beside it as well. It was lovely against the blue sky.

SO VERY COOL. I am very much in favor of manned space flight so I can't wait to see what comes next. :D

I'm using my Uhura icon because Nichelle Nichols has worked very hard as a goodwill ambassador for NASA and the Shuttle program. :D

How incredibly cool is that?!?!?!?!

EXTREMELY COOL. Everyone in my little town was jumping up and down. :D

!!!!!!
Jeez, I waved at the little dot of light that was the ISS when it was particularly visible a while back, I'd have totally lost it if the shuttle'd passed over me :D

I love your icon of McCoy!

Yes, I was incredibly excited by seeing the shuttle. It looked so awesome, perched on top of its 747. I could see it much more clearly than the photo indicates.

I was like running out of my house, up the hill and capering like a crazy person. So yes, it was very exciting!

I always wave at the Space Station without even knowing where it is!! :D

So awesome! :D

OMG THAT IS SO COOL! :D :D :D

Hahaha, I wish I could take credit for it. I can't remember where I found that one, but when I did I laughed for like ten minutes.

Yeah, I would have done the same thing. And my mother waves at airplanes, so the shuttle...lol...one time she actually yelled "HIIIIIIII!" when the Snowbirds did a flyover. This was from her position in the middle of the street. XD

I was on my morning walk when I bumped into a friend who told me when it was flying over -- they had kept the flight path a secret until the last minute. So I was sitting at my dining table working when I heard the 747 and I grabbed my camera and went dashing out the door and up the court like a mad woman! It was extremely cool to see it flying along. Other friends went down to the National Mall to see it fly over. :D

Sean Rameswarum was just assuring us on ArtBeat that it would now be in Dulles "forever." :P But it sure was cool to see it in the air. :D

Indeed! :D

Very very cool! :)

*sigh* In Houston, we're all still pretty pissed off about ALL the shuttles going to other cities (it ain't right) and now they've taken our Trainer to give to Seattle. Asswipes. *grumps*

yeah, the museum at Dulles is very rich right now. They also have the Blackbird, which flew across the whole country in one hour. Shiver!

Schway cool. ;)

My babe and I drove out to the airport today and watched planes come in. Cheap thrills!! ;D
