Atlas V went up today. Who knew?
Sorry for the derail. Launches are becoming more routine. |

Full-length test fire of the one from May (not the one they're planning to re-fly). Kind of cool.

Na, as came up earlier in the thread, any cool stuff about space is welcome. It's just that it's hard to get excited about a lot of the other companies as much since it's kind of same ol' same 'ol every time.

That thrust must have rotated earth a bit. It's 2 minutes later now.

Next launch has a date - late night August 13th (early morning August 14th). OP is updated with the new info.
I believe the last one of these kinds of satellites (JCSAT) was the first one they were able to land on the barge after launching to GTO. So it'll be another one "coming in hot". Hopefully they will have learned something from the last one that ran out of fuel a bit early. |

Meant share this prior. Great app for tracking launches.
