      Yep, that’s my daily go-to
      for checking what can be very dynamic launch times.
      I try to double-check my scheds whenever I log on.
      That’s why there’s an “As of” line and “UPDATE” tags.
      These entries, like all the others, are mainly for my personal entertainment;
      but you folks are more than welcome to play along.
      Nice to know you’re payin’ attention.

      Yeah, cool
      I hope they include a 3-D video capability.
      They didn’t say if it would be a Falcon9 or Falcon Heavy.

        Falcon Heavy

        “DragonCam (Dragonfly Camera Suite) is a set of microscopic and panoramic cameras to image Titan’s terrain and scout for scientifically interesting landing sites”

        that’s all i know. i suspect that you can find more if you wish.

          Thanks,
          but they aren’t launching until next Summer,
          so I’m not nerdin’-out yet
