Look In, If You Like, On New Zealand's Launch Sunday Night...


If you're looking for something to watch Sunday evening, US time -- check in on this. . . smile. . . .

Here's the latest -- and a link to what will be the launch-feed, will be here Sunday evening.

. . .After the previous launch target date changed due to weather conditions in New Zealand, NASA and Rocket Lab are now targeting 9 p.m. EDT Sunday, May 7, (1 p.m. Monday, May 8, New Zealand Standard Time), to launch two storm tracking CubeSats into orbit.

The agency’s TROPICS (Time-Resolved Observations of Precipitation structure and storm Intensity with a Constellation of Smallsats) mission has a two-hour launch window from Launch Complex 1 Pad B in Māhia, New Zealand.

Rocket Lab will provide live coverage beginning approximately 20 minutes before launch. Coverage will air on NASA Television, the NASA app, the agency’s website, and Rocket Lab’s website. . . .


Now you know. . . and I think this time, the favorite -- Forte -- will be showered in roses by tomorrow evening. Smile. . . .
