Congrats to ULA for (finally) pulling it off! Took a long time but was definitely worth the wait.

I love these things.Next launch from Canaveral is a Delta II with Kepler on 6 February. Next orbital launch worldwide is an H-IIA with GOSAT on 21 January.See the various "launch schedule" threads around the forum.Kepler is in March, not Feb. NOAA-N' is in early Feb.

Wouldn't it be cool to see an Orion launch on a Delta IV Heavy!!!
This one lifted off only two hours 14 minutes late. That's better than a lot of my airline passenger flights!
I remember trying to watch Atlas Centaur launches during the 1980s. Hold - recycle - hold - recycle. Over and over again until the window closed, then back at it the next day. They always flew finally. Somehow, Atlas eventually turned into an on-time launcher.
