No, surprisingly not. When I was heading over to take photos of SLC-2W, I was expecting some Fort Knox-type security, but nope, there was absolutely no one guarding it (well, at least at night). It could be because since the launch pad is on a military base, there's no need for additional...

More freaking photos! 3: Sequelitis Two more... They may or may not be better shots of SLC-3.

More freaking photos! 2: The Quickening Here's MOAR! First image is SLC-8. The second picture is some random photo of a road, and the third is a-OH NO! A TRAIN IS COMING! Note: For some reason, SLC 4 (operated by SpaceX) seems to be more secured, as the gate is a little more far out there...

More freaking photos! Here they are. These are photos of SLC-3 and SLC-6, including a random photo that doesn't have to do anything with those two launch pads.

I didn't take pictures of the other slicks besides Slick 2 yesterday, but today, I will take pictures of the rest of the main slicks (like Slick 3, Slick 4,Slick 6, and Slick 8). Hell, I might take pictures of abandoned slicks like Slick 10 or something if I can find them, but the main priority...

What "little" rocket? You mean the Delta II? Edit: This comment was made while exhausted. So, I might read this in the morning and find it ridiculous that I asked that question in the first place.

I was there when the scrub occurred. Had to get up at 5:30 in the morning at the Air Force lodging at Vandenberg AFB, drive up New Mexico Avenue to 26th Street, where a bunch of cars were parked on the side, while we saw the rocket standing still at Slick 2. I was checking spaceflightnow when...

More. On Friday, I'll take pictures of the other main slicks. So, I won't leave you hanging guys.

I haven't been on this forum for quite a while. Well, why not start off my comeback with photos from Vandenberg AFB that I took today? Most of the pictures are Slick 2 in the afternoon and night, but there are two images of LP-576 as well, including a random shot of the coast. Also, what do...

Because CDs is pretty much a wonder. Did you even know that the CDs were invented in the late 70s? A lot of people were skeptical before it was released, since they didn't really understand that there could be music on a digital medium. Also, I'm going to say that the CD-R and CD-RW's releases...

Now don't get me wrong. I like the Compact Cassette, its smaller compared to a normal VHS tape, and it doesn't take up a lot of space like a CD cover, CD, and a vinyl disc and sleeve. I did mention that I do know that the tape was used other than music, I mentioned that tapes were often used as...

Thanks.

That is the question. Of course, maybe someday, if the project is started, I could probably add failures to the launch vehicle.

Compact Cassette/Audio Tape: A tape smaller than the VHS. Music is stored on the magnetic tape that can be turned in a certain direction by two small spools. You can reverse and quicken the speed of the tape, but is often calibrated by the factory and not the users. The encoding of the sound is...

Will this also include Multistage2 autopilots? Some newbie orbinauts might want to have autopilot do the launch work for them?

Well, today, I have decided to start making add-ons. I decided to go a bit on the easy route. Since there has been no Taurus rocket add-ons on this site. I decided to go ahead and be the first one to make the Taurus rocket series developed by Orbital Sciences. I am new to add-on development...

Link to the thread? Also, I might be planning to go to Vandenberg AFB in the Summer and take a tour around LC-576-E. Might get enough photos to model the launch site accurately. Also, there's several types of Taurus rockets and I don't know if I can model them all. Also, I might make it...

Hello fellows, I'm trying to plan building the Taurus series of rockets developed by Orbital Sciences, and probably make the launch pad 576 aligned with Kyle's Vandenberg AFB surface textures. However, I've been wondering if I should do this for my first add-on or if I should do something more...

Well. I took a look at Brianj's MRO add-on, and I looked through the configs. There was a guidance file in the configs of AV-007. It had a bunch of complex instructions. So, how do I create my own guidance file, especially for LEO and GSO?

I imagine this to happen. At Stonehenge today, an astronaut claiming as part of Project Juno (see Soyuz-TM 12 and Helen Sharman) in the center of Stonehenge watching the sunrise. Tourists have wondered if he is an alien or not, and probably think he is. Now, for another news story...
