Puis, de retour à Cap Canaveral ce
vendredi 29 décembre, je me suis dépêché d’aller voir sur place (sur la côte Merritt
Island Seashore), si la FH était bien dressée sur sa tour. Eh bien, non !
Avec l’hiver qui commence enfin d’arriver dans la région, par 13 degrés C. (55
degrés F.), un ciel très couvert et un vent assez fort, SpaceX a préféré
rentrer son engin au chaud.
J’attends donc la sortie des deux
prochaines fusées, sachant bien que je réussirai à les shooter… de mon
Canon ! Elon, pour 2018, please, fais-nous un cadeau : dis-nous quand
le lièvre va sortir de son trou.
Cover of Florida Today on December 24, 2017 |
[Cape Canaveral, Florida, December 29, 2017, rke] – Really, Elon Musk and SpaceX will make
me go crazy. My colleagues with. First, we do not receive information about the
exact time of the Falcon's exit from their hangar, or even, now, of the day. As
proof the roll out of the famous "big rocket" Falcon Heavy (FH) that
we look forward to. Musk surprised us by sending a Twitter with the big rocket
in its assembly building, without us having the opportunity to see it from the
inside, which will come sooner. Nevertheless, impatience is pawing, because
this Thursday, December 28, 2017, Falcon Heavy is out of its shed, horizontally,
and was erected on 39A shooting, to our surprise. So we play rocket hunters,
since we are still waiting for the roll out of Falcon (Zuma) which we have a
little forgotten the existence. Another rocket (the "small") to be
launched around 4/5 January.
In short, this Thursday, as I did not
know the roll out of Falcon, I made another round in Miami, at 202 miles from
Cape Canaveral, just to change my mind. There, I was invited to do a
"little" walk of 3 miles on the beach and in the shops with Luna
Sanchez (not a movie star, but a young provost "princess", a fan of Swiss
igloos), on holiday in Miami. So, there, I noticed immediately that the capital of Florida recovered
well from hurricane Irma in September’17.

So I'm waiting for the roll out of the
next two rockets (FH+Zuma), knowing that I will succeed in shooting ... my
Canon! Elon, for 2018, please, give us a present: tell us when the hare will
come out of its hole.
