fun & curios – Sondrak's Gulch

TOMORROW MORNING:
SDA Tranche0 from Vandenberg

Aborted @T-3s for unknown reason
Rescheduled for tomorrow (Fri) morning

Virtue Signaling Day

The day after Earth Hour
when we brag about how we
saved the Earth last night,
while ignorin’ the fact that
Nature’s tryin’ to kill us 24/7

Final Descent to Splashdown

From Re-entry to Splashdown

Good test of the escape system, though

Night launch, bullseye, no drama
Locker-room pat on the butt for the whole crew

Another success.
Nobody’ll think less of you if you
skip this ’cause you’ve seen it before,
but we retired ol’ rocket/satellite nerds love this stuff
