Launches I've been involved with. Often, to the smallest detail!
1979-Present Satellite Launches
These often involve:
Staying up late, lots of comraderie and fun, sometimes success, sometimes unfortunate failure.
But then take heart as there is always the prospect of a rebound.
It's all part of the game in a high-risk enterprise and adventure, and I have come to enjoy it!
