SpaceX Inagural Launch of Falcon 9 on Hold


Under the secrecy of the day light hours, an American private company will launch a brand new rocket today as they prepare for future unmanned and later crewed flights to the International Space Station.

SpaceX's Falcon 9 remains in a Hold at T-15 minutes. The Hold time concludes at 2:45 pm, in which they must restart the countdown.

A troublesome range antenna is the issue for keeping the count in an extended hold.

Weather is overcast but remains go at this time.
