Watched the launch with the kiddies on NASA TV.
Then went outside and saw it come over South Africa.
Got a picture of it as well.
To see the little white dots we saw check...

Now I can justify to the wife that I NEED a 15" telescope
-edit-
Sorry, it is more like, see if you can spot the white dots with these pictures.
52mm lens is not that great.
The dots are about 5mm to the left of the arrows

- pasbesoin 15y agoI see the dots. You definitely need that 15" telescope -- tell her I said so. ;-) Reminds me a bit of being in the Palm Beach area and seeing a shuttle launch. That's some distance away, but it was still very visible. IIRC, we had binoculars, which made the details much more evident. Then, a few days later, I looked out the kitchen window to see some rather distinct exhaust plumes. No official announcement. Turns out it was a secret launch/payload, later confirmed in that non-confirming way the government sometimes has.
