For the old-timers around here, I am heading to sea for another rocket launch....

Yes I can. I will go up there at 3:15 PM PST and hang out for awhile. I dunno how often the webcam updates though. The master image of the webcam I see in real time on the boat.

Look for me to the left of the flame pit.

From the live picture, it looks like you're on a lake!!!
It's surprisingly calm!!! I guess that's a good thing!!

If you watch the webcam at about 9:30 AM Pacific time today you will see us roll out and erect the rocket for launch.
