> The device aboard [today's launch] was actually a backup of the original meteor camera that blew up along with Orbital Sciences' Antares rocket in 2014.

- justizin 11y agoNeat to hear about SwRI still doing space work. My grandfather was the director of engineering for many years, and I learned to program in BASIC on a 286 that he brought home when he retired. I get the impression looking back that he worked on so many projects he didn't have time to tell us about many.
