Default Falcon 9 second stage tested

Successfully: http://spaceflightnow.com/news/n1001/05falcon9/
It's now on its way to the Cape after a full flight duration burn test.
SpaceX seems to be shooting for a March lift-off.
The Dragon test spacecraft will be inserted into a 155 mile high orbit
if all goes well. I'm really hoping that they stick a camera on the
Dragon capsule so it can transmit some images back from orbit.
