In Brighter News, NASA Will Likely Launch SPHEREx, A New Space ‘Scope Tomorrow Night… To Study Solar Winds…

The launch time has been in a bit of flux, likely due to variable weather conditions at the Cape, but we expect a launch before midnight tomorrow night, goddesses willing. Smile.

Here is the latest updated time line, and sequence of events — as real space/solar science takes certer stage at Canaveral:

…Launch day coverage of the mission will be available on the agency’s website. Coverage will include links to live streaming and blog updates beginning no earlier than 9:15 p.m., March 2, as the countdown milestones occur. On-demand streaming video and photos of the launch will be available shortly after liftoff.

For questions about countdown coverage, contact the Kennedy newsroom at 321-867-2468. Follow countdown coverage on the SPHEREx blog.

Tuesday, March 4

12 p.m. – SPHEREx and PUNCH Launch Preview will stream live on NASA+.

9:15 p.m. – Launch coverage begins on NASA+.

10:09 p.m. – Launch window opens….

Now you know. There are thousands and thousands of great scientists — just going forward, and doing their jobs — despite the lunacy in DC of late.

Do remember that they are the ones… ACTUALLY making America great. They are why we have a lead in almost all hard science matters. Not due to some reality TV chuckleheads’ belchings — all, with barely a middle school understanding of the nation’s principles.
