ISS here we come with more vital supplies for you folks.
Antares 230 + has a 5 out of 5 launches so here comes number 6 .
Do they have an anticipated trajectory for launch yet. Like in past could see up here in New England.
Hi Robert,
? maybe Space Monkey can answer this question for us.?
This is a very regular question asked of most all launches. I wish the trajectory for all launches were available
They are usually provided, but there is an issue with the software that they are working on getting fixed.
P.S .
In the memory of climate scientist and astronaut Piers Sellers who did some great pioneering work on climate change . RIP.
Nice launch NGIS, long live the memory of astronaut Sellers.
