Just #FYI the Boeing #Starliner launch attempt is tonight at 10:34 EDT.

People love to toot about pending #rocketLaunches but for some reason they often forget to mention what time it's happening. So there. Tune in if you're interested!

@ottaross That's an hour after my bed time, so I'll catch up on it when I wake up.

I like to use https://www.rocketlaunch.live to keep an eye on launch details.

@WTL nice - looks like a good simple site. Bookmarked!

Fingers crossed for a safe launch.

@ottaross what’s EDT?

@cs oh it's North America's Eastern Daylight Time. I think it's currently UTC–4hrs.

@ottaross Ah, thank you.

I’m constantly irked by NASA and/or SpaceX neglecting to provide the UTC equivalents in their announcements :-(

@cs indeed, it's often without even a time zone.
