Warren,

The predicted landing site has been varying but the current prediction is near Marlboro.  If you want to help with the recovery, the best way would be to contact Jamey Finchum, AC1DC (email: [email protected])  He will be driving the recovery vehicle and will be monitoring the HAB location over APRS.  If you contact him, you can meet up with him when he heads to the recovery site.

I had hoped that by waiting to this morning, we might find a break in the weather for tomorrow but this is not to be. The path predictions support a launch tomorrow but the weather does not. We’ll target the next Launch window which is Sunday, May 5th. Have a great Easter!

• Sunday, May 5
• Saturday, May 11
• Saturday, May 25 or Sunday, May 26
• Saturday, June 1 or Sunday, June 2
• Saturday, June 8 or Sunday, June 9

Warren,

There will be no launch this weekend.  The predicted landing places for the HAB we well off the coast for both today and Sunday.

 

Thanks and 73,

The path predictions for this coming weekend have become fairly stable but they, unfortunately, do not support a launch for this weekend. We will begin looking at our next launch window on Monday of next week:

Saturday and Sunday – April 13th and 14th

Here are today’s path predictions for this coming weekend:

Update Wednesday, April 3: Unfortunately, we don’t have conditions at this point in time that will support launching our HAB this weekend. The path predictions are still changing significantly from day to day so we’re not ready to rule out a launch for Saturday or Sunday yet. We’ll take one more look at the predictions late in the day tomorrow and we’ll make a final decision then. Look for another update tomorrow evening. The current path predictions and weather follow:

Jamey,

I only looked at the Outdoor Category but I agree that we were 2nd in Outdoor and 1st in 4O.  I also saw that the #1 outdoor team was from  California.  Too bad they don’t have a multiplier based on how low the outdoor temperature is!
