Re: First Falcon start delayed



If I had to bet, I would bet that Falcon I launch comes significantly
after the Titan has flown, both on the island, and at Vandenberg. In
retrospect, we will learn that it wasn't the Titan that was delaying
Falcon, but rather the difficulty of launching a new rocket.
