By the way, Pete Harding will have a long article for CRS-2 at the weekend. I'll include the lovely mission patch L2's CRS-2 area has acquired too.

That's SpaceX's mission patch - L2 has the NASA patch for the mission (which will be released in my article later today). I can reveal however that no clover is present.

(See below, seen as it's been released):

Nice patch from both SpaceX and NASA! So on the NASA patch we can see the trunk with it's cargo and what is that exactly?

Those are the two Heat Rejection Subsystem Grapple Fixtures (HRSGFs) - grapple bars to be attached to the ISS radiators in order to aid in their handling in a future repair/replace scenario.

I presume we're on the countdown to the WDR/Hotfire now. What's the estimated t=0?

In a few minutes. 10:10am EST, per the party thread. SpaceX webcast page doesn't show anything.
EDIT: Ignore this.

That's the instantaneous launch opportunity on March 1, not T-0 for the static fire.

I can't tell if the strongback has been retracted, can anyone confirm?
