Good night and Morning from germany^^ Keep in mind this baby has some int stuff onboard for us Solarwatchers :) Two heavily shielded 1,400-pound satellites set for launch early Friday will fly in tandem through Earth's energetic Van Allen radiation belts in a two-year $686 million mission to probe the structure of the huge doughnut-shaped zones, how they are affected by titanic solar storms and the threat they pose to astronauts and costly spacecraft
LIVE streaming video and coverage of this morning's Atlas 5 rocket is underway! [ link to spaceflightnow.com] Set to launch at 4:08a ET. Watch live starting at 1:30a on NASA TV: [ link to www.nasa.gov] Just popped in quickly(fragglist)..Thank you for posting that link for the Super Tard Rocket Launch IWTB : ) Were you aware that fellow Solar Fraggle Shenu's hubby actually worked on some of the V.A Belt Projects directly? Thats' pretty awesome,I wish he was a Glper so we could get some first hand analysis of the data when it starts coming in(all going well)..thats' if he actually is a Scientist of some hue or another and not just a NASA Arc Welder or the like : ) If he is one of the Scientists I'm going to find it hard trying not to ask Shenu to ask her hubby 'What such and such' is for constantly,it'll be too tempting. LOL, me too, i was wondering if we could convince him to join up? wow! Indeed thats some cool stuff. No i didnt knew that...big thanks for the info btw Coming up on another weather briefing. We'll go into a planned 25-min. hold at T-4 minutes
