Delayed to 1:50pm (central) due to upper level wind shear
Delayed to 2:05pm (central) due to wind
T-1H 50M NO constraints at this time. Upper Level Winds will continue to be monitored New Launch time: 2:45 Central
Launch auto-sequence initiated (aka the holy mouse-click) for 2:45 (central) liftoffLast edited by Strychnine; 02-06-2018, 01:24 PM.
