But that hold is likely just a smaller amount of time, I guess. What's the length of the hold then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gargamel Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Can anyone imagine an IT professional under higher pressure right now than the guy being driving by a security officer at high speed out to the radar site, with a new switch tucked under their arm? 11 minutes ago, tater said: Every time NASA shows some animation regarding actually landing on the Moon they use some rando lander. Keep an eye out for Kerbal landers, they've been known to use KSP in presentations before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hold still hasn't happened. According to that timeline, it was supposed to happen at T-40, but it didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It's midnight, and they've gone over everything five times already today," the intern thought. He settled down for a quiet shift, put his headphones on, and started watching through some Youtube videos. A hot cup of coffee nearby slowly changed to warm, lukewarm, and then room temperature. Suddenly, the phone rang. Edited November 16, 2022 by razark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing the time to my own clock right now, and what you said clicked https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/launch?p0=5153&iso=20221116T0104 Edit: So last time SLS tried to launch, there was a hold at T-40 minutes, which isn't the same as a 40-minute hold. I'm curious about how the IT guys are doing. Edited November 16, 2022 by intelliCom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
