cant wait for the stubbier and more wind sheer resistant starship to be finished, all these delays due to common high level winds is, well frustrating, especially for the launch tourism companies down here!

I'm going to head out Jetty Park in the morning and hopefully catch the launch.
Grandson just got home from work (KSC) and said so far it's a go. Looking forward to it ! |

Clocks are running but upper lever winds are a concern.
Live local updates here : https://www.floridatoday.com/story/tech/science/space/2020/01/29/live-watch-spacex-launch-60-starlink-satellites-cape-canaveral-florida/4607007002/ Saw the Starship prototype being built at the Cocoa facility yesterday, it's rather tall. Got a couple of pics on my cell phone, no idea how to upload them here, sorry. Texted them to MrHold , he may post them up for me. |

That was perhaps the best first stage landing video yet.
Chokey, will you have a video clip of that? |
