    Saturn 1B launches scrubbed?

    I just did a weather check for Price,MD and forecast is Rain / Thunder / Wind 70% chance of rain for Saturday the day scheduled for the Saturn projects.

    Anyone have any info if it will be scrubbed or moved?

    L3 attempting at Red Glare XV this fall

    If you cuss,blow your horn,flip the bird...expect your wait to be longer in road construction.

    As of now, there hasn't been anything official. The weather changes by the minute here on the Eastern Shore. Best bet is to keep checking the MDRA website for updates. I know I've been checking every few hours.

    That's naked flying. Nothing wrong with naked dancing. Of course, with stickers strategically placed, we might see that video on youtube after all.
