END OF AN ERA: former ULA infrastructure at SLC-37, used to launch the Delta IV family of launch vehicles, was demolished this morning at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

It has been given new life with SpaceX and the Starship program. Lots to look forward to!

I will pour one out tonight for LC37. 

LC37 is a large site, the original planners in the 60's thought big.  It's going to be exciting to see this converted and built out over the next couple of years.
We very much need orbiter missions to Neptune and Uranus.  The cruise will be long, so we best get started.

Gonna miss old 37! It was always one of my favorites to visit and see in action at the Cape.

However, what lies ahead is game-changing. Bring it!

Out with the old, in with the new. Sigh. I should be used to this skyline changing by now.
