Riding Rita and Rocket Launches
It looks like the guys over at DirectNIC are going to ride out Rita from the comfort of their well tested bunker in New Orleans. Mike's doing an excellent job of reporting and photographing the proceedings.
Vandenburg Evening Launch
Brian Webb over at SpaceArchive has notified me that our good folks at Vandenburg AF Base, CA will be hosting a rare evening (dusk) launch next Thuesday Sept 22. between 19:24-19:40 PM. For those of you who have never seen an evening launch, they are pretty impressive to see. Viewing can be seen as far away as the Southern California coast, Arizona and Nevada. I've been very lucky to photograph several. If you're interested in this sort of thing, I highly recommend you check out his website and sign up for the email newsletter.
