This photo caption was kind of interesting:

"One could not overstate the importance of the Nov. 21, 2010 Delta 4-Heavy launch to national security, a mission by the massive rocket from Cape Canaveral that deployed “the largest satellite in the world” to hear the whispers of evil."
 
I am hoping to get a break in the weather to launch my Dr Zooch EFT-1 this weekend, but the wind and rain in the forecast does not look good.
 
I am a fan of the Delta 4 Heavy. I had started designing one using 4" phenolic on Rocksim. A useful feature there is the subassembly feature for the common core booster. I was thinking of having the boosters drop off, and having them use faster, higher thrust motors to get it moving, and a longer burn in the core.
