Waiting for GRAIL

Click here to view the embedded video.

Well the GRAIL mission was delayed again as you probably know, launch is scheduled for tomorrow at 9:08 a.m. EDT.  The delay today was to allow mission managers to review the propulsion system from the de-tanking after Thursdays scrubbed attempt.  So all looks good and hopefully the third time is a charm.

The video here shows as you know (you’ve watched it already probably) new views of the Apollo landing sites, good video that could be much better with a big slow down.  However to examine the images in more detail you can go here and have a look.

One of the questions I hope GRAIL might help answer I will just call: The Tale of Two Moons.  Okay, I’m a big time Dickens fan.  ;-)
