I posted this to the update thread as well, but just so that people can discuss if wanted without having to do quote gymnastics:

By now, the Launch Conductor at the SpaceX Control Room in Hawthorne, California should be polling the launch team to start prop loading.
there is no launch conductor in Hawthrone
Just edited that error.
I know it's borderline on wether this should be in discussion or not, but I'm not sure ZachS09 reads it in discussion on-time. People have asked it MANY times that please keep Updates to actual factual updates. Or at the very least prefix your posts with the information that this is NOT an update, but you are reading from some pre-written script that may or may not be actually happening.
I apologize, but it's hard to distinguish the two MCCs in Canaveral and Hawthorne. You know, trying to determine which one is monitoring the SpX-10 launch.
That's why I thought the launch team was in Hawthorne.
From past launch campaigns, it's pretty clear even in the absence of formal references that the launch teams are local, and the Dragon mission control team is in Hawthorne.
But if you need reference, the SpaceX Falcon 9 payload user's guide notes that launch control facilities are local to the launch pads; see, e.g., pp. 41 and subsequent.

Controllers have thus far reported no issues that would prevent the teams from getting into LOX load of the Falcon 9.
Any topics discussed at all besides weather?

They must have figured it out. Are they reposting a link for tech webcast?

Too bad, with this kind of clouds, the F9 will not be visible a lot from the ground..

Reminds me a lot of the launch of STS-50 (saw that live on my honeymoon) - off the pad, into the clouds 8 sec later, and that was all there was to see...

I haven't been on the forum much in recent times.
I'd just like to pop in and say I was watching this landing and it sent chills down my spine.
Well done SpaceX.
Rockets coming safely down to land is a reality.
