We were about 5 miles away, across the Banana River, and small children were screaming, and the ground was shaking.
Anyone who gets the chance, see it. there only a dozen or so shuttle launched left.
It did take us 6 hours to drive back to Orlando though (65 miles )

The closest I got to seeing a launch was Columbia back in 1996 when I was over in Orlando. Got to see her on the pad (obviously not too close though). I really should get my **** over there again as I'm a tad closer to Orlando these days.

As for getting their Hatch shut, they should do what I said in muppets...
Get them some training from the US Navy. Stick them on a sub, yell "dive" and then watch how much faster they manage to do it
