    It's a Delta rocket.

    Pulled up to my boat slip this morning and saw a bright light in the sky. As quickly as one can I took the 500 off and put on a more suitable lens. I wish I had prior knowledge of the launch or I would have been a little more at the ready :(.

    Nice capture for short notice. I hope the squiggly trail is from your boat rocking and not from erratic launch pattern!

    The moon and other luminary really adds to the impact.
