[U: Liftoff!] Northrup Grumman and SpaceX Delayed Due To Weather. Maybe Sunday at 11 AM Eastern?


Please forgive the old graphic -- I don't feel like getting up from my couch, and watching St. Lucia win its first sprinting gold (Yes! Julien Alfred), to make a new one. Smile. Updated -- lifted off Sunday at 11 AM Eastern.

But this SpaceX launch (like the one at right was) is delayed for at least a day, due to an invest weather event in the gulf. See updates here, by tomorrow morning:

. . .NASA, Northrop Grumman, and SpaceX are standing down from the launch opportunity Saturday for the agency’s Northrop Grumman 21st commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station due to weather conditions.

Teams are targeting no earlier than 11:02 a.m. EDT on Sunday, Aug. 4 for the next launch opportunity. . . .


Now you know -- well done, madamoiselle!
