“University and community college students will put their scientific and technological skills to test by flying experiments they developed on a NASA two-stage Terrier Improved-Malemute suborbital sounding rocket Aug. 16 from the Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. The launch is planned for 6 a.m. EDT from pad two on Wallops Island. This will be the first mission from a new suborbital rocket launcher at the pad. The window is from 6 to 10 a.m. EDT. Backup launch dates are August 17 through 19. The NASA Visitor Visitor Center at Wallops will open at 5 a.m. on launch day for viewing the flight. The rocket launch is expected to be only seen from the Eastern Shore of Virginia and Maryland.”
