shuttle launch delayed till tomorrow. because of anvils at the emergency landing site.
Can someone explain to me why our 'spaceport' is in Florida? Is it just because it is closest to the equator of the contiguous US, and gets the best rotational boost?
Personally, it seems to me that somewhere out west, in the mountains would be better.
Here in Arizona! MANY more clear days than Florida!
Anyone know what the current status of a Magnetic launch system is?
