    I've seen that posted around as well, but strangely, the official Vandenberg site hasn't posted that. Maybe they haven't so they won't look bad if there's a delay (or two or three).

    The thumbnails/attachements were done before one of the "great scubaboard crashes" where many of the file attachments were lost.

    Looks like the dates are already sliding for the VANDY...

    Per the January teleconference, the vessel is scheduled to leave Norfolk, VA on or about March 1, 2008 and arrive in Key West on March 12th. She will remain at the East Quay Wall until May 14th and will be deployed to the sea floor on May 15th, 2008.
