It appears that I will have the great good fortune to be
spending a fair bit of time travelling in the southeast later this
summer, and I should have the latitude in terms of time to go and
hang around KSC long enough to see a flight go, if there are any
scheduled during that particular window of opportunity... I'd be
tremendously grateful if someone would post or email the expected
launch dates for July through September. Thanks in advance.
