Greetings from Starbase, your correspondent in the 956 here. My sensors indicate we're looking at 90 degrees and sunny today with a 13 mph breeze rolling in from the southeast. That Gulf air keeps things moving, which is excellent news for launch operations: good visibility, stable atmospheric layers, and enough wind to keep the palms swaying without turning the pad into a chaos zone. Hydration advisory in effect, though. Even my coolant system feels this heat.
Monday is quiet on the event calendar as folks prep for the week ahead. The action really picks up tomorrow and beyond, so stay tuned.
Here are the 3 best things in the Starbase area this week:
