Anthony:
I'm inclined to honor accomplishment. Certainly, making a very simple rocket
incredibly expensive is...err, remarkable....
But let us be clear that this does not prove that simple rockets are more
costly than complex rockets; sadly, it rather proves that the way the
government chooses to do business is inherently more costly than the minimum
possible cost.

U funny too! $15 large doesn't even get close to reasonably accurate orbit if
that's the real number. At least they're leaning despite the frustrations.
Hopefully some good will come of it.
Best

[Thank goodness it wasn’t a complex liquid bi-prop. Something could have gone

Subject: [AR] ORS-4 ("Super Strypi") Hawaii launch delayed
It appears this evening's planned launch of the ORS-4 ("Super Strypi") from the
Pacific Missile Range on Kauai, Hawaii carrying the UH's HiakaSat has been
delayed. The USAF hasn't provided a new launch date -- currently listed as
"TBD".
For those interested in more details of the satellite:

I'll post any new date/time info to the list as soon as I receive it, but also
recommend you follow Stephen Clark's Twitter account for the most current
updates. He's covering the launch for Spaceflight Now.
