Mr. Z’s email address is in the “about’ section, bottom of the text. Put “evening pause” in the Subject line and submit.

Dick Eagleton: The instructions for suggesting evening pauses are not on the website. I will email them to you.

The remaining 55 version 0.9 birds are all in the process of being de-orbited. Combined with a few reported stillbirths and crib deaths among the version 1.0 birds, there are about 410 – 415 good units currently up. I also didn’t realize it takes roughly two months to get a bird from deployment orbit up to operational orbit. So that “early 2021” timeframe for an initial service offering in the linked story is looking about right.

Given the number of customer launches still to come in 2020, launching another dozen or so Starlink missions by year’s end is going to make for busy times at KSC and Canaveral the rest of this year. That can probably still be done without requiring any new pad turnaround records being set via judicious scheduling of LC-39A and SLC-40, but there probably will be a lot more 10-to-14-day pad turnarounds than we’ve ever seen before over a sustained period. To minimize demand on the two drone ships and the two fairing catchers, every opportunity for an LZ-1 landing is certain to be taken. The three launches currently scheduled from Vandenberg in Nov. and Dec. look like they will come just in time to relieve a bit of pressure in FL and still allow for a maximum push at KSC and Canaveral at the same time.

Add in the full court press being put on Starship – and perhaps even Super Heavy before long – at Boca Chica and it seems there is likely to be significant SpaceX news at least once a week from now into the indefinite future.

On another matter, Bob, could you re-post the instructions for submitting Evening Pause candidates? I can’t seem to find them anywhere with the site search tool.
