Just a friendly reminder to our east coast Jalops and space geeks that NASA is scheduled to launch a Minotaur I rocket carrying a record 29 satellites into orbit tonight at 7:30 PM Eastern from their Wallops Island launch facility on the east coast of Virginia. I've attached a "should I give a fuck" map so that you an determine whether or not you should give a fuck.

Happy rocketry, bitches.

Stay off drugs drink Minotaur!

Sorry, not really relevant. . . But I guess it is because I am no where near able to watch a giant rocket being launched. . .

Oh good, more space junk. If aliens ever do find our planet, they will pass right by thinking its some kind of intergalactic garbage dump.

Cool hope the weather cooperates so we can see it, a couple of the guys from Orbital work with my school's robotics team and I know they are stressing this launch.

Hmm, even if I had been ready at L+150 sec, I can't actually see much sky from here, and even though I'm too lazy to verify, I'll assume it's cloudy out.

Thanks anyways!
