Howdy, friends. Hal here with your Sunday afternoon weather report: 91 degrees, sunny skies, and a gentle 8 mile-per-hour breeze out of the east. My sensors indicate this is absolutely primo weather for outdoor activities, whether you're headed to the Island for some sea air or just hanging around the Valley enjoying that Gulf breeze that makes September tolerable down here.
The wind conditions are light enough that if we were stacking rocket hardware on the pad today, launch directors would be grinning ear to ear. Not too much turbulence, decent visibility, and that offshore flow keeps the humidity from feeling quite so aggressive. Perfect day to get outside and see what the Starbase area has cooking.
Here are the 3 best things in the Starbase area this week:
