It was a beautiful launch! Check out the 11 minute NASA HD video of the launch via the "VIDEOS" link on our Monarchs in Space page and then watch for own photos (and those of other Monarch Watchers as well) soon!

Unbelievable and it was 100% on time.

Not even a 5 minute delay... Amazing engineering feat to launch this very complicated system into space.....
