Im almost nervous myself, there is so much that can go wrong. Last launch we could see how little control they have over this huuuge balloon. Tons of people running around with ropes trying to control it but it seemed really hard. Hopefully there is NO wind this time. | ||

I don't think they'll take any chances though so it all comes down to whether the wind is willing to comply... lol I wonder what the max wind speed is for this to be safely executed | ||
