Space X is attempting to launch Falcon 1 today. The launch had been previously scheduled for sometime in January. Their first “demoflight” in 2006 didn’t go so well. Here’s hoping.
The flight readiness review conducted tonight shows all systems are go for a launch attempt at 4pm California time (11pm GMT) tomorrow (Monday). The webcast can be seen at spacex.com/webcast.php and will start at T-60 minutes. Please check back for updates, as the launch will be postponed if we have even the tiniest concern.
I’m not a praying man, but I’d be tempted to start a novena if it would help. The future depends on folks like Elon Musk. I mean, between Space X and TeslaMotors, the PayPal dude has a lock on the future.
UPDATE: Srubtastic! Eh, maybe tomorrow.
