It's launch day (again)! We're back-to-back with our next launch and 76th Electron mission, this time from LC-1 in just ~4 hours' time.

'Follow My Speed' is scheduled to launch NET:
🚀 1:15 am NZDT
🚀 12:15 UTC
🚀 07:15 am ET
🚀 04:15 am PT

They didn't announce this launch that far ahead of time, nor do they have much public info on what they're launching. I guess we'll just have to wait for the webcast!
