Spotters wanted for Virgin GlobalFlyer mission
Okay, I'm a little behind the curve on the world of aeronautics.
I just found out that Steve Fossett plans to take off today in a Scaled Composites-designed jet plane to attempt the world's first solo nonstop trip around the world. There's a page on the project's website that asks for anyone who can track an object at 45,000 feet (either with still photography or, if possible, a webcam) to contact the project folks. I don't know whether it's too late now to volunteer, but if you're interested, see he http://www.virginatlanticglobalflyer...n/Spotters.jsp I don't know whether this information has been posted to any of the astronomy newsgroups, so if you're involved with those, you might want to give them a heads-up, too.
