Out to launch
| | I'll be up at 3:02:08am for the launch of the Calipso CloudSat from Vandenberg tomorrow. The satellite will for the first time look into clouds from space, and produce detailed 3D images along with other useful weather data. |
| | It has a launch window just one minute long. |
| | Update: the launch was scrubbed, due to a last-minute communications glitch. The new launch window is Saturday 10:02am PDST. |
Narrows it down
| | So, it is true that this guy in the blue shirt runs the world. |
| | I said that in my sleep last night. That's what my wife told me this morning. |
Bladio
| | Wow. Lee Abrams has a blog. I never knew Lee, really. I just met him a few times very early in his career as one of the biggest radio programming consultants of all time. That was back when he was consulting WQDR in Raleigh (would have been in the mid '70s), one of the earliest Album Oriented Rock (AOR) stations. The term, and the format, were (as I recall) Lee's inventions. |
| | Anyway, it's way cool that he's blogging. It's not cool (to XM, anyway) that I'm a Sirius subscriber, I suppose. But... whatever. Be curious to hear (from others) how it goes. |
