[i]Confirming a smooth takeoff! Cosmic Girl is officially airborne for our first attempt at an orbital launch demo. After taking off from Mojave, Cosmic Girl will fly due southwest to our drop point just south of the Channel Islands. Once we reach the drop point, we'll enter into a loop that we call the "racetrack" as we wait for final go/no-gos. As we fly laps around the racetrack, the team will be checking conditions for release — making sure that the wind levels aren't too high and that we have a strong telemetry connection so we can receive data after the drop.[/i]
