The latest forecast calls for an 80% chance of violating launch criteria. But then considering the launch is to take place less than an hour before sunrise here in Utah and our weather is also forecast to be bad I'm guessing our chances of seeing it would be pretty poor anyway. Maybe next time... patrick On 09 Dec 2009, at 22:19, Patrick Wiggins wrote:
I've seen a couple Vandenberg launches from Stansbury and one for the Midvale Harmons. However, those were evening launches with the exhaust plume backlit.
As Brian mentions this, being a morning launch, may not be as spectacular. But if the weather permits I'm going to give it a try just to see how a morning launch looks.
