Re: MarsLivingNow- Re: Delta Launch of Phoenix

That's when I had to get up in my time zone to see it. After the
white-knuckled radio outage, I'm almost surprised I managed to get back to
sleep afterwards. I doubt you'd have been able to see it by then, since it
would have a slant range of a couple thousand km and the sun was coming up
in Florida. Come to think of it, if John Locker set up at Chris Valentine's
Shuttle-hunting perch in Flagstaff, Az (from where the longest video track
of the STS-107 was taken)...
