Shuttle Launch

Almost 10 years ago I saw the last night shuttle launch. To this day it was the most incredible I've ever seen. I was looking through some family photos earlier today since my parents came to town and I was looking at some of my pictures from that day. There was this one picture when of the shuttle broke the sound barrier just as it entered the clouds causing a the clouds to literally ripple with the boom. That image got me thinking about what was beyond the hole it created in the sky with a full moon in the distance and the light of engine reflecting off the clouds below.
