come on, this is the world's largest rocket.



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Oct 27,2009 9:36am
delayed 90 minutes because of a fucking ship being too close to the danger area.

*to your danger zone, gurl

Streaming NASAtv on my iPhone.

whoa, they got that sorted

9:49 to launch



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Oct 27,2009 9:47am
Yep. watching.
500 million dollars for this test rocket.

fuck, I should be drinking some scotch for this.


burn that sweet, sweet money, space bros.

honestly, I wish we put way more funding into NASA.



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Oct 27,2009 9:55am
Absolutely, NASA is just about the only US government agency that has done much positive for the world.

I think this is hilarious that it isn't front page news on so many news sites.

this isnt the biggest rocket. The Ares I is just a shuttle solid rocket booster with a payload on top of it. Now the Ares X, that could be the biggest rocket ever.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Oct 27,2009 9:57am
I agree, I fully support NASA, however... meh, I won't jump into the conspiracies anymore.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Oct 27,2009 9:59am
the weather is holding it off. they're stuck at 4 minutes right now.. waiting for the weather to clear up.

I gave up, it wasn't connecting.

Moon landing was faked.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Oct 27,2009 10:08am
No it wasn't.

DO NOT TRUST ARIL. HE REPORTS FROM HIS WORK STATION, ABOVE THE FEDERAL RESERVE, DIRECTLY TO OUR REMOTE LOCATION ON THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON. HE IS GATHERING INTELLIGENCE ON ALL USERS OF THE RTTP FORUM. YOU WILL AWAKE ONE DAY IN A TESTING FACILITY IN AN UNKNOWN LOCATION. POSSIBLY UNDER THE DESERT, BELOW THE OCEAN OR EVEN IN OUTER SPACE. TRUST NO ONE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

My rocket is bigger than your rocket.



toggletoggle post by Yeti at Oct 27,2009 10:30am
hopefully this is real, unlike the one fired into the moon to test for water.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Oct 27,2009 10:30am
Are you alluding that the water test rocket was fake?



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Oct 27,2009 10:30am
this isn't making it to the moon

it's splashing back down in the ocean.


should only see about 2 minutes in the air.



toggletoggle post by Yeti at Oct 27,2009 10:38am
there was no allusion there, it was blatantly fake.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Oct 27,2009 10:41am
haha, yea.. it was. there were a buttload of people saying something shot it down



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Oct 27,2009 10:47am
yeah, I don't think this will happen today



toggletoggle post by dertoxia   at Oct 27,2009 11:17am
last chance for the day in 4 minutes



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Oct 27,2009 11:23am
oh well, tomorrow it is.



toggletoggle post by Pires at Oct 27,2009 11:29am
That was uneventful.



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Oct 28,2009 10:00am
I think this might actually happen at 11 today.

Get ready to watch a rocket fire and then slash into the ocean. YES.

Rocket - I'm taking a Rocket!
I'm packing my suitcase, and look out moooooooooon!
Yeah I Rocket, into outer space,
Goodbye human race,
I'll be there soooooon!
Blast off!
For fun and adventure,
Yes I said adventure, collecting stoooooones!
Yeah it's my way,
On the old space highway,
Once more they all say: There goes Astronaut Jones!
HEY!

Still waiting. The weather is not working out again.

They're going to do this when I'm stuck in a van driving to Poughkeepsie...I can feel it.

If you had the iphone, you'd be able to stream it via the NASA app.

I'll stick with my shitty Nokia from 1999 and just be sad.

Stop spending money on fancy guitars and amps and get a new cell phone!

I'd use it for my wallpaper too if I had a 14" WXGA screen, or liked pixelation.
