So, the only people who could watch the launch were ironically those already in space; since the blast was that large. NASA is referring to it as a “catastrophic anomaly.” Which,

To volunteer for clean-up duty, or find out more you can always try contacting NASA.

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city.
