They are attempting to fuel the rocket for this afternoon’s launch but have encountered a liquid hydrogen leak at one of the quick disconnect connections. Hope to resolve it in time to complete the fueling and are still fueling the LOX tanks. Hopefully, they can resolve the problem in time as they only have a short launch window at 2:17 PM east coast time.

So today’s launch is a No-Go. The next opportunity will be Monday. If it doesn’t go then, it will have to be put on hold until late October because the emergency escape rockers need to be recertified and that involves rolling it back to the assembly building.

Looks like they finally were able to launch at about 1:05 AM eastern time this morning. Launch was a success.
