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.

Barely but sure, I'll give a fuck and try to find a place to watch it from.

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.

L+90, just on the verge of L+60. You can bet I'll be looking for it

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!
