Beautiful day for a launch. Don't have the total numbers yet, but we had to have had close to 200 launches. Photos are online at;

I thought the Gemini Titan was a K21 PDR clone until I saw the pic with it up against that Impala trunk....that thing is HUGE....what did it have for power ?
I'm guessing two engines of at LEAST high "H" impulse level.

I'm not sure what he was going to fly it on. I left with about 30 minutes of range time left and it hadn't flown yet. The wind was picking up and blowing towards the paved parking area, so I'm guessing he played it safe and will wait another day. Note in the first photo of it that the capsule doors are open. This thing was huge. I wanted to talk to him about that and his upscale Orion, but was busy flying my own stuff. :D September is our big two day launch. I'm hoping he shows up with the Gemini Titan!
