Do we have an ETA for the presser?I missed that...did they say there would be a post launch press conference during the webcast?Right before sign off, they mentioned there would be a media event later in the afternoon, but no details were given as to time or whether it would be webcast or anything.

OK, good news on the Cassiope and CUSAT separations - congrats to those teams and to SpaceX.We still need to get confirmation on DANDE and POPACS.

The video said "relight of 1st stage to begin at this time" but no confirmation that it did actually relight.
HD video of launch is up.
Quote from: AS-503 on 09/29/2013 04:50 pmHD video of launch is up. The data dropouts appear to have represented skips in time on the real time broadcast. If you try to make the "tape" time line up with the SpaceX clocks (there are two and there is a 14 second discrepancy between them), it does not. SpaceX doesn't want anyone to be able to confirm the event times, perhaps?
