ILS sponsored a BBQ at the end of the second day of propellant loading on Friday. The Astrium propellant team worked very hard and the BBQ was a nice break before their changeover day. Pete and Dave fired up the grill and the fire pit, and ILS moved the heaters into the pavilion. The food was great and the company was even better. The drinks that were not in the pavilion froze before the BBQ was in full swing, and so did the pickles. But the problem was quickly solved – grilled pickles! Thanks to all to who worked on the BBQ – it was a great time!

On a final note, congrats to the Astrium propellant team. Great job, guys!
