Chris B - NSF @NASASpaceflightThis has been Range Requested for a too long now. Probably didn't help that Falcon 9 and Atlas V are on neighboring pads. Getting closer to this "two on the same day on the same range" becoming a reality, however. They are going to need it before long with all these rockets!QuoteEmre Kelly @EmreKellyUpdate on #Falcon9 #Hispasat launch: SpaceX did request early Thursday for the range but has not yet been approved, according to Tim Dunn, NASA launch director. Mentioned during #GOESS pre-launch conference.
