North of Hawaii right now. If it is visible on this pass, it should be in just a few minutes. West heading to South - South East.
|
East edge of Alaska, and south of Alaska.
|
Should be over Washington - Oregon shortly.
|
Can't wait until space flight is cheap enough so we can launch a bunch of worthless turds into the sun.
|
Wispy clouds to the west were not a friend this time. Caught a glimpse of the ISS for about 10 to 15 seconds to the West - NW, but that was it.
Maybe tomorrow night, if they are not hooked up already. |

Current image of the dragon from ISS is very cool.

What are they using for maneuvering? The Dracos?

EDIT: In case it's helpful to clarify, there are Draco thrusters (which are the same as they've used on Dragon V1) and SuperDraco engines (which are used for launch abort situations). They use the former to maneuver in space - the latter are just for emergencies (though they had originally hoped to use them for propulsive landing instead). |
