My daughter captured this image as she was on her way to the airport early one morning in Orlando. She found out later it was the SpaceX launch from Cape Canaveral. Click here to learn more.

I look forward to studying weather with my first and fourth grade scientists each year. I am always amazed at the beauty and power of weather systems. Mrs. Denard, one of our fourth grade teachers, captured this approaching storm.
