Noctilucent Cloud Outlasts Sun Rise


Sun rose at T+49 minutes, that is, at 7:09 am.

The sun peeks over the horizon beyond the clock which registers the time since launch.

I took more photos of this sky show and sunrise than I did of the actual shuttle launch. The sun eventually cast its rays over the lagoon about an hour after launch. Soon after, at 7:20 am, I took my last photos.
