This is a repost of an earlier post that got lost in our system. For all those who are watching this kind of thing, SpaceX is launching a cargo F9 to the International Space Station on Wednesday, at the inconvenient time of 3:59 am EDT (1400 GMT), May 1st.
They did the standard live fire of the engines this morning at 10 am, then moved the rocket back to the hangar to begin integrating the cargo Dragon.

Thanks, Steve. Appreciated the heads up.
You’re welcome. For the record, the other two posts that were lost involved a “story” about socialists and dead cows, and Trumps NRA speech. The latter one had gathered a comment or so. I’m not going to go to the effort of resurrecting them, as neither was earthshaking.
Thanks for re-posting, Steve! That’s about the time I wake up for work, so I just might catch it.
Hey, the “post comment” button glows green now. Cool!
That IS kewl! It’s easy to forget that Scott is VERY busy on this site.
I might be too groggy to figure out how to turn on the TV, at that hour…
