Ever Been Stalked By A Squirrel? & A Heavy Lift Launch to Orbit Tonight

Jerkface the wonder squirrel returned today.....

Damn you tree rat!!


---
December 8-9th 2018: There's a launch tonight just after midnight for us. A Delta IV Heavy Lift rocket is taking a 'mysterious' cargo to orbit .... Some friends and I have been looking at photo's and whatever they are putting up there is no 'little' satellite..


I mean, lookit this photo, look at the bottom left hand corner and how tiny the people are compared to this 'capsule'. Given some room for boosters on whatever the satellite is the remaining area is still pretty huge... Something big is going up...

Countdown clock is here:

That link also has a link to the YouTube live broadcast... These heavy lift launches are bad ass! I'll be up checking it out!

This is the mission 'patch'... even it is kinda... ominous.. Eagle tearing with it's claws, "Serving those who serve"?

Super military.... Maybe it's some kind of kinetic orbital defense weapon.....


Skerrrry! 💀
