Any NSF people going to KARS tomorrow?
Quote from: Folgers25 on 02/18/2017 01:37 amAny NSF people going to KARS tomorrow?My brother Matt and good friend Jimmy should be on the dock, maybe with a family of four in tow. They've/we've seen more than a few launches, to include STS-130 and SDO (the latter from KARS). We expect KARS is about as good as it gets for S1 landing--if others know of a better spot pls speak up!Illinois pickup and Jimmy looks a bit like Santa.
The Sheriff's ordered me down off the side of the mound behind the cruise terminal. Still don't understand the rules since I've watched launches up there before with no complaints and there were dozens of people up there even as I had to come down. Anyone know the rules and reasons there? There is no signage or fence.Fortunately my NASA friend got a car pass for the second attempt so I can watch from inside the fence. Not sure which veiwing location yet, but I'm excited.
