I was actually wondering about you when I saw news of it Choobs.
News said if you want to try to find fragments, go to Mount Clemens. That's about 40 miles from home as the crow flies. I thought it was closer. Anyway, I'd say that was a once in a life-time event - and I missed it entirely.

Good article about the upcoming SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch.
The discussion about NASA's space launch system has me wondering if maybe NASA won't/shouldn't be in the rocket development business anymore. The question hinges, I guess, on whether commercial efforts are robust enough to handle the full spectrum of launch needs going forward. Also, I like Musk's comment, there's "a real good chance that that vehicle does not make it to orbit." A success in his mind is if it destroys itself far enough from the launch pad not to damage it. He's obviously playing down expectations, but I wonder what the odds off success really are.

Oooo. It's launching today. Window opens at 130pm, Eastern Time, and you can watch it live streamed from Space.com, and probably lots of other places. This article details a bunch of what could go wrong. Nice read...

Looks like they are shooting for a 3:15 PM ET launch currently.
EDIT
Make that 3:45

Just finished the live coverage. Success! The only thing unknown right now is if the core rocket landed on the drone ship successfully or not. But otherwise, the launch was an unqualified success. Woo hoo!
