[Chaos-l] National Geographic reporter wants to know: Will yoube watching the shuttle launch?

[Robert Nielsen]

Everyone,

So I just got off the phone with Ms. Minard. I plan on going down to 
Jordan Lake tomorrow night and trying to see if I can see the launch. I 
will head down the left of the fork ... so I can get a good southern 
horizon. The launch is supposed to be at 9:20 PM tomorrow night ... and 
I'll try to work out the compass heading we should be looking toward ...

More information as I can figure it out.

Robert
