I am in that picture! I was flying Combat Air Patrol on the North end of the airspace between Miami and Tampa, just West of the Coast of Florida. We were spinning around to the North at 35,000' when that thing lifted off. At first, I thought the contrails were from a jet coming out over our airspace, then I saw the flames, and realized that it was actually the shuttle heading away! INCREDIBLE PHOTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
