The happy circumstance of capturing the Big Dipper during the launch, along with a constellation of cell phones on the beach. The dotted line points to Polaris, the North Star. The most observant may notice that it is the only star without a "trail", caused by the earth's rotation in the two minutes and twenty seconds of the exposure.
The very bright streak at the base of the launch is actually a cruise ship making its way into Port Canaveral.
