It hit around 5:39pm (my power flickered) and I had another large flicker at 9:38pm which was around when they reported that Pepco had rerouted power around those lines.

Yes, the ear tip is there to avoid unnecessary trips to the shelter for a cat that has already been spayed or neutered. An easy visual marker denoting their status.

If you're interested in the Mission Control side in addition to the astronaut perspective, I highly recommend Gene Kranz's autobiography, Failure is Not an Option. It's a pretty fantastic survey of Mission Control and the process and technological challenges and successes from Mercury through Apollo.
