Nasa's next launch attempt is going to be tomorrow night at 8:47pm ET. I'll try and take some pictues and post it for you guys.
Here's a quote from my MySpace blog that I did about what it's like to watch a launch in person:

The amazing thing is though is just how huge of an event these launches are. For example I watched the launch they had in September from my street in Daytona, 50+ miles away from Cape Canaveral, and I can hear it, HEAR IT, when it launches, it's a low rumble that slowly fills the air. You can feel it in the ground too, a tremor in the earth. Hows that for amazing? The sight of it is pretty cool too, too just watch these rocket, with a vast plume of smoke and fire go up into the sky and just... fade away... as it curves around the earth.
