Chevy posted this on my Facebook page. That and the one that builds bridges is amazing.

They are both very similar, but amazing machines. I couldn't believe how much the track flexes when I first saw it.

It does look like fun

Yeah, Way more fun than standing 150' in the air with the wind blowing waiting for a 200 Ton machine to come in and hover over your head carrying a 40 Ton roadbed. . Sorry Crabby but i don't do Heights.

Launch scheduled 25 miles north-east of me in 17 minutes (give or take) from Wallops Island. Should be visible for most of the east coast. I'm gonna watch it fly by from my front porch.

You can watch it here.

Live webcam at the launch pad.

Headed for the International Space Station..............

A Rocket Launch to the Space Station Today Could Be Visible Along US East Coast!

If the launch is in 17 minutes and you wrote that 58 minutes ago, didn't we miss it?

"launch is go- I repeat - launch is a go - proceed with final countdown"

If you were listening to the radio chatter earlier - there was a fishing boat in the area that had to be told to evacuate by the CG. He was moved & cleared the "zone" that's what made the launch "a go".

WHERE'S ED!!!
he loves this stuff.................
