SuperFastJellyfish Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 That's normal for the Delta IV. Excess hydrogen around the launch vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StupidAndy Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 and now super secret (no talkie talkie) makes it no more webcast that was an interesting launch when do we get the landing footage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSlash27 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I wish they would've covered it up until the first stage jettison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And well have to start another thread to explain why super secret rockets are not observed reaching orbit. 3 minutes ago, Canopus said: Yeah the CBC looked pretty roasted there. That insulation sure didn't last long after ignition. But I guess they didn't need the weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odds are that this fairly routine NRO mission won't go way off into the weeds like Zuma did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If ZUMA went in the weeds. i have yet to see any evidence of a failure. Unnamed sources leaking failure on a payload that nominally doesn’t exist seems convenient.

The weeds being collective odds of the curious and confused. Edited January 13, 2018 by PB666 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was referencing the discussion of Zuma rather than the actual payload. @PB666 is correct here and I apologize if my metaphors are too vague sometimes.

I've got all my plants covered. But it's supposed to be sunny tomorrow, so besides being cold, the weather looks to be good for tomorrow evening.
