Following the launch proceedings on
http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html (Live NASA TV)
and on
http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=27385.0 (Live thread with updates, including images)
and of course chomping peanuts furiously...

Any fellow UMSF'ers out there, and where are you at?
