Default Falcon Heavy update (links)

Hello All,

The launch window for the inaugural Falcon Heavy launch will be from 1:30 PM EST (1830 GMT) to 4:00 PM EST (2100 GMT) on Tuesday, February 6th. Live coverage of the launch can be seen *here* http://spaceflightnow.com/2018/02/0...-status-center/ , beginning about 15 minutes before liftoff (which I presume is set for the beginning of the launch window), and:

More information on this mission is available here (see: http://spaceflightnow.com/2018/02/0...n-heavy-flight/ and http://spaceflightnow.com/2018/01/2...vy-test-launch/ ). The rocket’s payload, a midnight cherry red Tesla Roadster, will—as Elon Musk has said—be playing David Bowie’s iconic hit “Space Oddity” as it soars into the cosmos.
