    Wednesday the 5th is the next scrubbed launch date.

  • Darn, I've waited all day to say something similar! 😏 "If it's Boeing, it ain't going!"

Looks like about 7:34 am my time tomorrow!   Might have to do my morning walk a little earlier!  Better not be any big badda-booms! 🚀

Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

Certainly hope not, Charlie. Crew onboard. 

Link only, not the video itself. Supposed to go live at 3:30 PM Pacific Time tomorrow (May 6 Monday).

(11:30 PM London time, all good Englishmen will be in bed by then, he he).

The worst choice in the face of challenges or skepticism is to not try. Boeing is trying and I pray they get some good luck now for a change.😇

I had assumed that this was another Falcon 9 launch, but it seems to be an Atlas V. This is presumably the first manned mission with that rocket?

ULA Atlas 5. 

 

Atlas has a heritage that goes back 50 years, of course.

Looks like another delay!  Maybe by May 21st!  Delay, delay, delay!  Sounding like a familiar theme! 😲

And the next Starship launch is about 3 weeks away, apparently.

SpaceX are constructing a second launch tower, so the pace will pick up.

There are numerous Starship  launches planned for Cape Canaveral too, which will be the new home.
