OK, NASA tickets for the causeway viewing go on sale at 1AM tonight/tomorow morn.
Think I'm going to have a sleep (er...nana nap) and get up just before they go on sale.
The process from now on, has changed dramtically to get these tickets.
It's called - you enter a web room sit there for half an hour, then you get chosen on a random basis to purchase tickets. So the tickets will be sold on a radom basis.
I think because they got sold out in under 2-3 seconds last mission, they must of thought people were using techniques (server bots I think), to guarantee a ticket.
Because they are using the "captcha" word phrase logging system, they hopefully might stop the flood, so that everyone gets a chance.
The tickets are now "causeway only" or "Nasa Visitor Center only", but they can have the option to have "dinner/breakfast with an Astronaut", it's not an automatic thing anymore. You have to add it on.
Also, the tickets will "only" be sent to the billing address on the Credit Card. It says it will cost $35 for O/S mailing.
If I fail in the tickets, I'll try the "Gator Tours" prospect.
Failing that, worst case, I'll be watching it from about 22k's away (hotel), that is last resort, but I think a beach posy will do just fine (Somewhere)
2 weeks out - got the clothes - got the digital camera - got a new HD (1080i) camcorder. Unsure how it will go in the night, but with those bright lights it should be fine.
Just got to get set for the "- C " minus temp's.
Flordia is seeing very cold weather at the moment.
This whole trip, I think I'll be looking the the "Michelan Man".
One memorable trip coming up.
