It appears that Zarya has been boosted as advertized for Day 2.
Although the boost delays Zarya's rise above the horizon for this
evening in North East US (Maryland) (so that the sun is lower below
the western horizon) observers will be hard pressed to observe it low in 
the SW.

It looks like we will have to wait a couple of weeks to get a good 
view:-(
