Yes , I think this will be touch and go for me too with the pair passing over my location about 20 mins before sunset on the 13th. As a matter of interest , how long is the launch campaign ( in days ) ? ....I know each launch window is about 5 minutes , but if weather problems arise , how long can they delay before running out of launch options , ten days or so ?
