Unfortunately, the probe has run into a snag (http://spaceflightnow.com/minotaur/ladee/130907launch/) with its reaction wheels, but it should be fine.

Had an awesome view from the water front at Fort Monroe.
I wasn't sure what to expect...maybe something that looked like a star rising but NOOOOO....the freakin water looked like it caught fire for a sec and WAM!!!! a big ol fire ball with booster separations!

I was flying FSO, and stepped away to see it. There seemed to be some low clouds in our area but I watched for about 3 minutes and saw nothing. A friend of mine 30 miles North of me said he saw it, but not at 100+ seconds, he said he saw it at 10+ seconds!  :O
