I saw "scrubliner" in the live chat and had a sensible chuckle.

ISS launches are instantaneous windows. As soon as theres a hold like that it is a scrub. They were returning the vehicle to the last stable configuration in preparation for scrub operations.

On the NASASpaceflight stream they said that the internal computers took a look at everything and said, "no."
Which sounds just perfect. |

It’s… probably not as bad as you think it is.

The GLS (launch computer) activated the hold due to an anomoly. PR commenter claims that mission control is looking into it....
Likely more like "no public release of scrub cause until we come up with what we want them to hear and feed the media" IMO Those people looking at the screens know what is in the green or not. At the least they know the reason for the GLS flag of HOLD. |

Meh, I am good with a scrub if needed.

Someone in Boeing management realized they didn’t have enough blue-hairs in the control room.

Don't feel cheated on the information they have provided, it's not like the other guys stream the Command channel for 2+ hours prior to launching |

Today's instantaneous launch opportunity at 12:25:40 p.m. EDT (1625:40 UTC) occurs when the orbital plane of the International Space Station crosses over the Atlas V launch pad. At the time of launch, the space station will be flying 260 miles over western Germany.

Old school aero/gov people won't let it go up on SpaceX View Quote Said booster is an Atlas. Which is intended to be replaced by Vulcan. Atlas uses Russian engines and they haven't been able to get more of those for a little while now. Also I think Starliner might be a bit too heavy for a Falcon 9? But I'm not certain about that. It sure would be an awkward looking configuration. In any case the crew have exited the capsule and I suppose we will just have to see what happens tommrow. |
