I want to see this. | 8:47 a.m. May 2, 2008
How do I go about finding out when the next test will be conducted?

I worked on the Titan IV SRMU at then-Hercules, but have never seen a rocket motor fired.

My mom and dad went to this yesterday and took my 2 little boys. The boys loved it! I think the next one is in October.
