    earliest possible date for this is March 22, 1982 the first launch with an unpainted external fuel tank.

    although it really doesn't look like Columbia, with its black chines, which would push the earliest date back to April 4, 1983 - Challenger's first flight.

    A blind man with no limbs could take a picture of a rocket taking off and it would still make a good photo. No skill involved whatsoever.

    In a couple of weeks we will be headed to Florida to see our first Space Shuttle launch. Do you know of any good viewing areas open to the public? I want to be as close as possible, but due to my wife's bad knee, we can't walk very far. Any advise will be appreciated.
