[Launch Alert] Launch on Schedule

[Brian Webb]

Tonight's Minuteman III launch from Vandenberg AFB appears to be on
schedule. The launch window extends from 00:01 (one minute past midnight) to
06:01 PST.

Although liftoff can occur at any time, the military tries to launch at the
exact instant the window opens. In this case, that would be 00:01:00.

If the sky is clear, the launch could be visible to the naked eye for two or
three hundred miles.
