After 3 days of hanging around
NASA TV at tea-time, listening to the very patient man telling us what was going on ("Hello, this is Atlas command .."), high winds, too many clouds and several aborted countdowns - finally New Horizons blasted off to Pluto!

What a great sight! Brought tears to my eyes! I hope I'm still be around when the data comes back, in 9 years time!
