Dragonflight

In less than an hour, the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket is going to lift off with the Dragon capsule to the International Space Station. If it is successful, it will truly usher in a new era of space travel. The only thing that compares to this is the maiden flight of the first DC3, which was the dawn of commercial aviation as we know that today.

Who needs sleep?

I'm going to be following it here-- http://new.livestream.com/spacex/Launch

But it will also be streaming live on NASA TV.

    SpaceX Falcon 9 launch aborted at T -00:01. Launch rescheduled for Tuesday morning.

    Better than blowing up on the launch pad, fer sure.
