Oh, f'cripesake. Here, the Earth is about to be engulfed and consumed by
some hostile alien energy-life, and all our best and brightest can think
is "Save the pens! SAVE THE PENS!"

Well, all the foliage on the planet has already turned red, so we're
probably toast anyway :)

Looks like a nearly-polar orbit launching from...what, northern
Louisiana? Kentucky? Arkansas, maybe?

Looks too far East to be Arkansas. If it isn't Northern Louisiana it
might be Western Tennesee or SouthWestern Kentucky. Perhaps they were
launched with a mixure of LOX and Moonshine...
