Want to watch a rocket launch?
A small aerospace company called SpaceX is set to launch a rocket at 1pm Pacific Time. I personally haven't done any work on this one, but I know my company does work for SpaceX and I wouldn't be surprised if we've helped them with this mission.

Thanks. This should be better than Live at the 17th.

No prob. It may (or may not) be interesting to tune in 10 minutes or so ahead of time to watch/listen to the pre-flight checks. They've got some stuff going on now, although it's mostly watching a rocket just sit there at the moment.

Alright, the launch has been delayed. They just came on and said they'll start the countdown again at 21:15 Zulu, which is 1:15 Pacific Time. The clock will start at 1:15, so launch is now scheduled for 2:30PT. I guess the launch window is 1:00 until 5:00 PT.

Alright, so nobody really cares, but if someone does, the clock's down to about 20 minutes or maybe a little less - like 17 or 18 ish, so... if you want to watch a rocket launch, you should check it out soon.
Sorry to hear you're probably going to miss it, CrazyEyez. |

I'm watching. Well, it's in the background right now, but I'll watch in another 10 minutes or so.
