High winds forced NASA to scrub the launch of an Atlas rocket this morning from Cape Canaveral, Florida.Launch has been retargeted for Thursday morning with a new launch time of 10:23 am EST. The launch window is one hour.
Wind speeds in excess of the 20 mph rule caused the Atlas launch team to delay the launch time three times before calling a scrub for the day one second after the count picked up at T-4 minutes.
Low clouds may be a concern tomorrow along America's Space Coast, thus the Air Force Meteorology group is forecasting 60% go for favorable weather.
SpaceLaunchNews.com will have LIVE TV of the prelaunch through spacecraft separation beginning at 8AM EST tomorrow.
