Looks like they're done with vehicle prep - they're moving the support truck away.  T-5 minutes.  And a "go for launch" poll underway....  All "go".

T-17 minutes, they just announced.  (Yes, the youtube feed is back up.)

They also announced something interesting, which is (I paraphrase) that they regard this suborbital vehicle as an excellent low-cost way of building team skills for a future orbital vehicle.  So Exos has further ambitions!

Running a bit late.  As best I can tell from the checklist call-and-response in the feed, they've finished fuel-fill and are working on LOX fill.  Launch relatively soon thereafter, I'd guess.
