Watched from a field on Retreat Rd 'till 1905 EDT, nothing. Having spent decades in the space business, knew I could spend all night and still see nothing. Read on Wallops' site it's re-scheduled for 1822/6:22 pm EDT Tuesday. Guess the 23 minutes difference in launch times is to acommodate the Space Shuttle's orbit.

Tonight was scrubbed due to a sailboat entering the red zone. Rescheduled for tomorrow at 6:22pm. Orbital has a good GE KMZ file where you can check what kind of view you will have via GE. This would have been ours this evening.
