Space Exploration megathread

Since a number of cool things are happening in space exploration these days, we'll widen the scope of this thread a smidge. Conversation about all things space exploration are welcome, whether it be from NASA, SpaceX, ULA, Blue Origin, or anyone else. Chances are most of the discussion will still be about SpaceX since they love to make things public and fun, but nothing's off limits. I'll eventually get around to modifying the OP to include resources for other companies too, but in the meantime, feel free to post any cool stuff you run across.

So on that note, the Delta IV Heavy launch keeps getting scrubbed, which keeps forcing SpaceX to bump their launches back. But here's a super cool shot of both F9's patiently waiting for their turns to fly.

Welcome back, Skipper!

Looks like the Delta IV Heavy is still scheduled for tonight at 11:54pm EDT. Then again, a bird might land on it and scrub it...

And we thought SpaceX scrubbed a lot. It's been crazy watching them try and get that thing (D4H) off the ground. Hopefully they can get it in the air tonight just to clear the range for everyone else!

They should just transfer the payload to a Falcon Heavy.

Looks like ULA might actually get off the ground tonight. Maybe.

I'll be watching to see if Tim Dodd does a hosted stream, personally.

It's a bit confusing. T-minus counts down to the point that they CAN launch. They have a built in 15 minute hold. That's where we are.
