Here's what happens after launch! An epic thread...

@MissionToPsyche is ready to go, soon as weather gives us a break! The attempt on Fri. Oct. 13 (my big brother's bday, along w a great friend at SpaceX on Psyche team, so VERY good luck) is 10:19:43 AM East. time. (1/n) Image The "launch phase" began on day L-3 (Oct. 9) w/ launch load of parameters and final spacecraft configuration.
On L-2 we had our formal Launch Readiness Review (500 people!). On L-1 lots of media events, an all-team meeting, & a looong weather discussion 🙄. And a family photo! Image
