   Is there any explanation for this? just red tape paperwork?  If they can   
   track a rocket in flight, surely than can re-orient themselves fairly   
   quickly?   
      
   And since launches are prepared well in advance, surely the launch   
   company can provide the Cape with the numbers that they can punch in to   
   set the tracking system quickly?
