This is interesting in that the IS-23 will be directly inserted to GEO with no need for liquid apogee motor burns. Perhaps our Orbital friends can tell us if the usual BT-4 apogee thruster is installed as usual of if the propulsion system has been changed for this mission?

I like all liquid rockets.

Proton is quite ugly though.

Hoping for a successful mission from the people at ILS. They do a great job.

Next major event on the countdown will be the rollback of the Mobile Service Tower. This will take place at around T-1h. We are now at T-1h 22m.
