Good luck to New Horizons today.

I'll be heading out soon to join the crowds watching the launch across from  the cruise terminals.

It's a little chilly this morning, but supposed to warm up to around 70 with 11 mph winds and 30% cloud cover by launch time.  Nice day for a successful launch.

Cheers,

Larry

SIMCOSMOS - LivePics

Hope you do not mind about linking here to my LivePics page.

Edit: I will upload a new pic here and there. For now I must go back to the "coding" of the ascent profile and other issues... I want to try to make available one addon zip for some orbinauts ;)

At +/- launch time I hope to have all ready here...  to do an "almost" live (10 s refresh rate) launch simulation... even if it results a little clumsy in some aspects (had not time to tweak all the files) ;)

It's a press conference on updating the status of the samples from Stardust.
