God speed, NG19.

@NASA_Wallops @Space_Station @NASA_Wallops ...Will the Visitor's Center launch viewing area be open to the public?

When the night skies remain too cloudy for #stargazing with the telescope, I just paint my own #galaxies

@NASAhistory I wouldn't celebrate the 4th of July. I'd celebrate #IndependenceDay and I'd do it by jettisoning all the collected waste over China.

I'll never tire of photographing this beauty.

The Wallops Range is scheduled to support a Rocket Lab launch between June 15-20 in the evening. There is no live stream planned for launch and the Wallops Visitor Center will not be open for launch.

[Raven Stihl @1Pisces_Sun]

@NASA_Wallops No live stream, and the Visitors Center will also be closed? A clandestine op, perhaps?

Falcon 9’s first stage has landed on Landing Zone 4, marking SpaceX’s 200th successful recovery of an orbital class rocket!
