Delta_Launch_II

On Sept. 25 2009 NASA Launched a Delta II rocket with some super spiffy space specialty. A military mission super secret. Shhh. Well sure its all over the web but still keep it under you jhat will ya.

After all lose lips sinks Space Boats.

The trajectory was way different than the shuttles. This guy basically went straight up then sort of turned. How weird is that.

Here are some pics of the Take Off. Click on image for a way too large version.

 

Lift Off.
Into the few clouds there were. It was a fabulous day for a space boat parade.
Cool condensation around the protruberances.
Busting out of the cloud, thunderously ascending to ...
The wild Blue Yonder?
Oops. A quick U-turn then that-a-way.

Infinity and beyond.

Very cool pics from Jetty Park. Insanely close to a space boat! There is a reason they are called BLAST offs.
