Bummer about SpaceX scrubbing the launch, but the weather was a bit too iffy. And clear weather will help the Photo-Optics Team get better film and/or video of the launch. Considering it's SpaceX, they probably do 100% video. I went to a High-Speed Imaging conference some years ago, and the recording of high-speed events had pretty much gone to all video by then. The company putting on the conference was literally the last place in the world we could get our high-speed (400fps/16mm) film cameras serviced, so I got to spend two extra days in training with the guy that worked on our cameras.

ReplyDeleteI agree!
DeleteHope all goes well with them.
ReplyDeleteSince they scrubbed due to weather, I'm hoping things go smoothly on Saturday.
DeleteThat's a canoe I might even like.
ReplyDeleteSure would look neat on her own little trailer behind my Jeep!
DeleteI have not earned the right to such a canoe, but you have.
ReplyDeleteThank you, ma'am! I was only on her as a caretaker and restorer.
DeleteSo when does the kit arrive?
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!
We're working out something on the shipping cost.....all that iron and armor is HEAVY!
DeleteThat kayak is only cool if the guns operate and you can sink other watercraft. Of course, knowing you, they will.
ReplyDeleteShhhh! I'm working on a miniaturized fire control system.....
DeleteAny of the Iowa class numbers would be great and I prefer 64.
ReplyDeleteWhen the Wisconsin was last reactivated she spent some time in Philly shipyard.
I got to go to sea with her for a few days of sea trials.
I do casually drop into any ship conversation, "When I was at sea on the battleship Wisconsin."
We visited the Missouri ay Pearl when we went to Hawaii some years ago, and I spent 6 years on the Iowa as a volunteer when they brought her down to Lost Angeleez.
DeleteI finally understood what "Built Like A Battleship" means.....
How long did it take him to build it is the question...
ReplyDeleteI just wonder if it's wood or fiberglass.....
