Hoped to see something but I guess I’m too far north plus clouds to my south/southeast. But huzzah for the latest advance by Delmarva’s space program. ;)

Saw the launch on NASA-TV online. Looks like Space-X has a little competition.

Even so, the Cygnus Cargo-Transfer Vehicle is NOT meant to be re-used like Space-X’s Dragon module. Nor is it designed to ever be man-rated like Dragon is.

So sorry about the cloud cover. I haven’t felt well today so stayed home, but my husband and daughter went out by the water and got a really good view. I stayed home, about 15 miles away, and not only did the house shudder but the windows were rattling before I even saw or heard anything.

Windows continues rattling for quite a while.
