The webcast from Colorado Springs should be starting in a few minutes.

The website says it will start at 2 pm MDT. I expect quite a few people will change the “channel” at 2:33.
NASASpaceFlight scooped this I believe. I know I’ve read somewhere about the internal combustion re-press system I think it was there. Anyway, upper stage advancement is a real innovation here. It will be interesting to see the economics of first stage engine recovery. Sounds like a rather sophisticated ground/air infrastructure to support engine module recovery in mid-air.
Vulcan may ULA live long and prosper… heh…
ULA and SpaceX should remain open to the possibility of integrating the former’s second stage on the latter’s first.
