The Big Push

The mission date is rushing toward us and the team is flying. We’ve ramped up to eighteen hour days, seven days a week. We originally though we were flying this mission is July, but we had a big schedule slip forward and we’re only days away.

Not only are these the most sophistication vehicles we’ve flown, we are flying three of them. On top of that we’re launching them all in a thirty minute time slot.

The team has really risen to the occasion. There’s still a big push to go. I’m shooting for a personnel best on this one.

    If NASA could make progress at the rate you guys do, we’d be colonizing Mars by now!!! Good Luck and God Bless.
