Pardon the Tweets, Blog Posts, Etc.: NASA Launch Imminent

// September 6th, 2011 // Personal Crap, Space Stuff & NASA

Space Shuttle DiscoverySo we’ve arrived in Florida — all safe and sound.

We originally were planning to come down to celebrate Tyler’s upcoming second birthday, but then I got selected to do NASA’s Tweetup for the upcoming GRAIL (Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory) rocket launch.

Travelling down here this afternoon seemed to take forever, but Tyler really got a kick out of the airplane ride and the whole travelling deal.

Anyway, this post is mainly a bit of forewarning. Feel free to unsubscribe, ignore, etc. my posts, tweets and other noise for the next two days.

I really hope you won’t. But most of my pictures, posts and tweets for the next two days will revolve about my much-anticipated jaunt east to the Kennedy Space Center. Tomorrow, we get a full tour of the whole complex, along with special guest speakers and a bit of a behind-the-scenes type of deal.

Then, if the weather and everything else behave, we’ll be seeing the GRAIL Delta II Heavy liftoff. Can’t wait. Hope you don’t get too annoyed either.
