[h=3]Next Wallops Launch Scheduled June 4[/h]Wed, 22 May 2013 08:40:25 AM CST

When did the first stars and galaxies form in the universe? How brightly
did they burn their nuclear fuel? Scientists will seek to gain answers to
these questions with the launch of the Cosmic Infrared Background
ExpeRiment (CIBER) on a Black Brant XII suborbital sounding rocket between
11 and 11:59 p.m. EDT, June 4, from Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia.

https://www.nasa.gov/centers/wallops/home/index.html

The mission will be available live on Ustream beginning at 10 p.m. on launch day at: https://www.ustream.com/channel/nasa-wallops

Mission status on launch day can be followed on Twitter and Facebook at:
https://www.Twitter.com/NASA_Wallops or https://www.facebook.com/NASAWFF

More information on CIBER and the NASA Sounding Rocket Program is available at:https://www.nasa.gov/soundingrockets


Get the popcorn ready. We'll get to see a REAL Black Brant launched!

I don't know which is more entertaining, the actual launch or the wackos posting on the ustream chat channel.
