Space Launch Delayed…Forever.

About that delayed NASA launch…yeah, it’s permanent. The, thankfully, UN-MANNED, NASA “Antares” class rocket exploded during take-off this evening in Eastern Virginia.

About that delayed NASA launch…yeah, it’s permanent. The, thankfully, UN-MANNED, NASA “Antares” class rocket exploded during take-off this evening in Eastern Virginia. 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, is, I’ve decided, a much more politically correct way of saying “Fuck’d.” We would promise to keep you up to date on this project, but…well no new launch is in the planning. To volunteer for clean-up duty, or find out more you can always try contacting NASA. www.NASA.gov

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. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is.
