They're going for it again!

Stage sep, Mvac ignition, boostback

Liftoff Max Q

Another hold, t-24 mins

Till the livestream, liftoff is 1 hour later

Aw I was hoping for the 23rd, that's my birthday

Well, they proposed a crewed variant to NASA, so they have at least the option of owning it. But yeah, they can't choose that for the USAF missions

Or Lockmart wants Boeing out

What

It already flew on F9, so the next flight will be on that likely. I imagine they'll alternate F9 and booster-less Vulcan when the latter comes online

The launcher/erector is coming back, then the crew arm will, then retry in a week or two probably

Go for launch, everything green, t-11 minutes

If they are what I think they are, they may the the wires to bail out from the launch tower in case of emergency, literally sliding down attached to the wires while still inside the IVA suit. It's not as fun as the Ares I ground escape system though, that one had a full rollercoaster for that purpose

Those are some cool sats damn

The other opportunities until March 2 are much less favourable

Please stop

It may also end up just as a test tank like MK1, (RIP), but it's also much smaller than Starship, so who knows. Maybe it will really fly

Wow

PPE/HALO or Dragon XL?

Possible first methalox to orbit, and second to space!

Soyuz MS-22
