NASA's image of the day...

A rocket-launch captured on film in Norway... AWESOME!!!!! 

The rocket was launched from Andøya Rocket Range near Andenes, Norway, and carried instruments about 200 miles (320 kilometers) into the atmosphere to observe the aurora and the associated flow of heat, particles, and electromagnetic energy.  The rocket eventually landed in the ocean about 900 miles (1450 km) from the launch site.

Welcome to 2011 everyone!
