Default Rocket launch

Nasa Wallops Island is set to launch its new rocket into space today at 0700am. If all goes well I will be home from work and in position to video tape it.

Here is a link that has a live video of the count down.

Hopefully this one will go better than the last which blew up about 20 seconds after lift off.

I remember watching one of those Wallops launches when I lived up there. It blew up about 10-15 seconds after launch. Pretty exciting to see from my house. That was back in 95 or 96.
