I know it's not metal detector related but I thought everyone would enjoy these pics of the shuttle going off.

There sure are a lot of people on the beach for a Sunday evening @ 7:30

I got a pic right as the rocket boosters were coming off. You can see the shuttle out in front and the boosters still on fire! Awesome!

Great pics! I was there when the Challenger went up that July, I was fortunate to get some good shots, they were still in my camera when the Challenger exploded 6 mos later.

:wink: RR
 
Great job on the pictures! Bet that's a real sight to see in person. Thanks for sharing them. You could also put them in "My Daily Snapshot", they'll get a lot of looks there.

Cool pictures. That's one of the things I miss from home. Even on the west coast you could see the space shuttle taking off very well, especially in the evening time. I remember one time when my son was learning to talk and we were on Int. 75 he said "look rocket." It shocked me; one because he was right, but two because I didn't know he knew what one was. I believe it was one of those Delta rockets.

Thanks for posting the pics.

great pic, thanks
now for me, i'm not sitting on that bottle rocket and let them lite it. :stop:
 
I was in Melbourne Beach this week. We were so excited that it was going to launch on Wednesday....and very disappointed that it didn't. We left Florida Saturday morning. :'( :'(
 
cool shots, we could see here in the Tampa area.
 
I'm a little to far north to be able to see it, I'll just have to wait for the show on TV
