SCRUB: SpaceX - Falcon I (Mk.II) NET March 19

[reubenb]

I have sound now.

Controllers talking

[Chris Bergin]

Webcast has sound guys.

[chawleysnow]

Sounds!

Perhaps they left off the sound to source more streams - not a bad idea.
How long does prop loading take place? When do we have the last vehicle checklist complete and the go?
Hey got audio!

[landofgrey]

Something you don't hear in a space shuttle countdown very often "it's not necessary"

[Chris Bergin]

[wirehead]

You do realize that the webcast is a favor for the geeks of the world and not much else?

I was going to suggest something else other than a gag off of the last launch because I remember the flight being longer... but 29 seconds was when the engine died on the last flight, so...

[nathan.moeller]

Commentary starting it sounds like.  About 27 minutes to liftoff.

[DaveS]

Not commentary. Just tied the webcast to the flight-loop.

[Avron]

My thanks to Spacex for the Feed.. its great

Heh. Just saw a mouse cursor over the "T+" count down. Someone just broke in asking for the LSO on the "anomaly net"

(first post btw).

In a way, that's better. I don't have to put up with everybody here complaining that the PAO is talking over important stuff...  :laugh:  :laugh:

T- 25 mins

[lostknight]

T-25 and counting.

[hyper_snyper]

So we're well inside T-60 minutes, is the "live webcast" just a video of the vehicle on the pad or am I missing something?

I am unable to get the webcast to come up at all.

t-25 mins and counting

[marsguy]

The rocket sure seems to be billowing out a lot of boiloff.

[wirehead]

I'm sure they could have gotten a geek to be launch commentary volunteer.

Finding a geek who doesn't get overwhelmed or drop a few f-bombs if something goes wrong..... that's hard.
