OMG?!?!?! You mean we'll actually reach earth orbit again in 2016 because of our incredible effort under Obama to return to space! |

It's looking like it will probably be 2017-2018 at this point just because of scheduling, but yes. And hopefully shortly after we'll actually break orbit again. It's been too long.

For those who don't follow it very closely, this will be attempt #2 at landing the first-stage rocket vertically on a barge in the middle of the ocean. Last one was the first time they'd tried it, and they got close...
It's not quite as exciting but, by coincidence, the CRS-5 capsule returning from ISS will be splashing down in the ocean around 40 minutes after this one launches. Busy day for SpaceX. |

Winds are too strong up high at the moment. Seems like every time they do one of these things at a time I can watch, they get postponed.
