Heads up:
Scheduled December 17th at approximately 10:00pm, Orbital's third Antares rocket and the first of eight cargo resupply service (CRS) missions to the ISS will launch from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport (MARS) at Wallops Island, VA. This being a night launch with the largest rocket ever launched from Wallops Island, it will be clearly visible in the night sky. This bad boy is about 5 time larger than the little ones we've seen so far this year.
