Where's the live television feed when we need it?
Rocketear is about to launch, and no national coverage. :roll:
Just have to wait for pictures.

...Well I see it on the pad but it is still under a shroud...weather report from Lousisana Spaced Command indicate clear to partly dark tonite turning light towards morning...LSC indicated that they are 10-10 listening in and that your signal is coming in 5x5, wall to wall and tree top tall.....

Rocketear... Redwood FOGRAD here.

WOW

That is so great to see~
Anticipation after all these months....

The birth of life into your new creation ... and so shiny too.
Love the look and shine of the fender guards, but the lights give the energy~
