Falcon 1 Flight 3 launch today!

Scheduled for 4 pm Pacific Daylight Time, today, August 2. Only just
now announced officially, SpaceX has been playing their cards tight.
They don't get much of a launch range window, either.

Lots of fresh photos here of flight preparations, including a
shot of a dummy Falcon 1 first stage in a post-launch recovery
flotation device.
