you to help commemorate Apollo 11 by logging on to the site across the time point Tuesday, July 20, 10:56:15 PM EDT. This is 35 years to the second from Armstrong's "one small step". 10:45 through 11:00 PD EDT would be a good window. We'd like to set a record for users online during this time, to use as a lasting record of the event. There will be a chat in progress, but you can participate or not, just as long as you're logged in during that time. Thanks.

So we will see unprecedented harassment of USR at that time too?

Alas, the proper time for rocketeer celebrations has passed for the year: July 16th, 9:32AM: the anniversary of the LAUNCH.

I remember launching my Saturn-V on the first anniversary of the Apollo 11 launch, timed to the minute.

I did it! At 9:32 AM this last Friday, I launched my Quest Falcon on an A8-3 in my front yard...landed one foot from the pad. Great Flight. Yeah, yeah, I didn't have any Apollo-related rockets, so get off my back, ok! ;-)

I'm hoping that is fixalbe real soon now. Peter Alway has been working on a Saturn V kit. From what I've seen it's lots of laser cut parts like his Astrobee, BT-70 or ST-20, and flyable on a C6 or maybe a D12. Sort of Big Bertha sized.

I've been spending rolls of Apollo XI dollar coins. I went through 12 of them this weekend.

It's ST-20, flyable on a B4-4, B6-4, or C6-5. Unless you add a lot of paint so it weighs a ton.

I think Bill Saindon has everything but the instructions and cardstock stuff ready to run off 50 of them next week for NARAM.
