Stunning View of Space Shuttle Discovery's Final Launch
Watching a space shuttle launch from the ground is a fascinating sight to see as it is, but, this past Thursday, passengers on a commercial flight leaving from Orlando International Airport were able to capture brilliant video footage of shuttle Discovery's final lift off.
Among many things, Discovery was the first shuttle to be piloted by a woman in 1995, carried the first African American spacewalker and, at the end of this mission, will have brought 180 people into space.
