I remember various times when a rocket was on the launch pad. The Gemini and Apollo missions took place while I was growing up. And I remember asking my dad why they said ‘T minus 7 and counting.” Their launch lingo didn’t make all that much sense to an inquisitive kid.

Everything has been tested and re-tested with the new website. Discovered errors have been corrected and systems re-tested again. And after a long preparation day, there’s one little piece that won’t pass muster (yet!). Look for another update, very soon…
