Flying Saucer Over Hawaii
#1
If someone says they've seen a flying saucer hovering over Hawaii in June, they'll be right! NASA will be testing a saucer shaped landing craft for future Mars expeditions at the Pacific Missile Range on Kauai. Unless it goes drastically off course we won't see it flying over Puna, but the next best thing is available, a live web broadcast from the saucer on June 3rd:

Anyone with Internet access will be able to watch live as video from the June test is relayed from the vehicle to the ground. The low-resolution images from the saucer are expected to show the vehicle dropping away from its high-altitude balloon mothership and then rocketing up to the very edge of the stratosphere.

So there—suck on that Martians, because after all these decades of sci-fi invasions, we are going to be the ones seizing your planet with our very own flying saucers.

The countdown is on.
The first scheduled test earlier in the week was postponed due to weather conditions, but is now rescheduled for Saturday morning June 7th at about 7:40 AM.
There's a countdown clock on the page, and don't forget you can watch streaming video of the test in progress.
(Note: spacecraft will probably not land at the new starship facility in Kalapana)
