Nasa readies its most powerful rocket for round-the-moon flight

17. I think I read that! Another advancement for women!

Good to be able to hang out with your son, and have several days to catch a launch.

Here's a story. Back in ?'80's there was going be a nighttime launch. The trajectory was going to take it over the NYC area.

We lved in a building sitting on an 7+ story high hill, and our apt faced a 180° view. (As sky/cloud fan; it was wonderful!) Like, on a winters night I could see Orion out my window.

So I think I set my alarm to get up to see the rocket trail. I remember sort of feeling "floaty" with anticipation, as I got up, and walked to the window with a clear night sky in view. But.....
nothing.
Turned out a canceled launch.
