It took some getting used to (no dew, low humidity, no fog, shirtsleeve observing all night long), but we cope. ;-)

I didn’t do the twitter thing for MSL launch, but was one of the two Juno live tweeters? for the August launch. I also worked GRAIL and MOjo and I attended a Vandenberg launch in October. :-) Quite the adventures!

Oh how nice to have clear, dark, dry and warm conditions, jealous! I’m impressed by Mojo’s relatively excellent images from that classic Traveller (can’t beat the classic!) with short exposures on a good, but basic camera.

Did you get to do the Twitter thing for the launch of Curiosity? Can’t wait for that!

Keep up the good work,
John W from SCAS/RFO
