Endeavor, lifting off, past an airplane.

Found it on twitter this morning.

I watched Apollo 13 yesterday, the second time i've missed the start of it :(. It was still gripping stuff, then i was glued to wiki for about 2 hours reading all about the space missions :)

Recording/uploading the commentary was worth it. The pilot's line was great.

". . . if you're on the left side of the plane, you'll probably see the people on the right side looking at the shuttle".

Last flight, so sad.

And how awesome that has to be, to see that from a plane. Once-in-a-lifetime experience.
