To paraphrase the kiddies of today, "OMG Ponies!!!!"
I got to travel to the Kennedy Space Centre to watch a Delta II launch carrying the Kepler mission. It was a magnificent sight. What shocked me was how bright the it was. Luckily it was a very clear night, so one could see the boosters separate and fall back down to the Earth. You can see them glowing in the picture above.
Way go to Kepler!
