  1. Evening all - Hope you are all well.

    At least the early hours is at least somthing to look forward to.

    Already booked myself off work being the gaffer, i dont have a holiday form! (Self employment)

    Hit and miss i see? But at least is better than being way south and just rain. As the warnings go, theres a little chance. I will be up at 4:30am, just incase.

     

  2. The ISS (International Space Station) went into darkness, before the impending storm.

    I did see some gravity waves maybe?

    In the cloud formations just before the stations camera went into night.

    A few screenshots just for referance. (Off topic but the ISS cam with tracker and lightning detectors from around the world is great to see from above in near real time downlink 3 mins and prosess)

  3. If your a night owl Space x Falcon Heavy is set to launch at 01:07 GMT.

    Its payload is the secritive Space Force X-37B spaceplane. This launch has been cancelled i think four times now due to weather and tech problems on the boosters (That are recycled starlink Boosters i may add but not the main core (the middle one))

    The Falcon heavy is three Falcon 9 boosters together, so it will be bluddy loud.

    Space x has its head on the block now going for this, i just hope all goes well.

    Telematary, depending where the payload needs to be the launch is from Florida - thus usually sending the load over the West Atlantic to Europe so might be worth looking up, if you get chance  - again its telemetary is unknown the only thing will be be the video feed, unless you have a radio telescope to hand (Jodrell bank?) It could be missed.

    Anyway, enjoy the show night owls live link below:
