Space Shuttle Rainbow? yes, please!

The launch of the Space Shuttle Discovery made this awesome image in the sky. I love rainbows, and I love Shuttle Rainbows even more!
NASA’s Explanation: Just one minute before midnight EDT, Friday, August 28, the Space Shuttle Discovery began a long arc into a cloudy sky. Following the launch, a bright and remarkably colorful trail was captured in this time exposure from the Banana River Viewing Site, looking east toward pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center. On STS-128, Discovery docked with the International Space Station Sunday evening. The 13-day mission will exchange space station crew members and deliver more than 7 tons of supplies and equipment. Of course, the equipment includes the Combined Operational Load Bearing External Resistance Treadmill (COLBERT).

Awesome beautiful. But we all know it’s really the shuttle’s encounter with an alien spacecraft.
that is a pretty sweet pic
Excellent pic! Ever seen the Hubble Deep Field or Ultra Deep Field pics? THEY are absolutely awe inspiring.
Does that mean that there’s a pot of gold buried under the launch pad at Cape Canaveral?
That is an awesome pic.
i saw the launch from my house but i didnt notice this “rainbow”
Colbert shuttle makes rainbow……PERFECT!!!!

I saw the launch outside…nothing like that view there, but one heck of an orange glow in the sky! Cool to witness history…probably the last night launch of the shuttle

I Want a Space Shuttle! Im sure Olivia is happy they are getting exercise in Space. If anyone watch the Tomgreen.com interview last night you’ll know about the lecture she gave to Fatty Listeners about exercising. Good show Olivia. My Wii-Fat says im “Overweight” and you inspire me!
That is BA
didn’t know there was such thing.
Taste da rainbow!
WOOO COLBERT IS IN SPACE!!!!
Well that’s gay. heh heh You know cause the rainbow and the gay pride heh uh nevermmind.
Great picture, I saw the shuttle streak by here in NJ a few years ago. It was a night time lunch, all you could mainly see was the flames. Still an impressive sight.
Wow u had lunch at night, and it was on fire! That is impressive. No just joking, pic is awesome though.
Seriously, how do you use a treadmill in zero gravity?
thats pretty cool
Olivia,
This also happens occasionally off the coast of Southern California when the Military has maneuvers/testing at night. you can see it from San Diego to Ventura.
