I just bought a viewing pass for Saturday for KSC visitors center. Weather forecast is still a crap shoot for Saturday but it's only like $30 for the pass. it's the 7 hour drive each way from Charlotte that will hurt if it gets scrubbed again.
I hope it’s clear enough. We’ve hit the afternoon t-storm season in the past week. I like the night launches. I can usually see them from the west coast and it’s impressive even this far away.
Go or no-go?
A large storm just moved in over Florida's Space Coast, and it doesn't look to be in any hurry to move away. At about 1:42 pm, launch officials said the weather is currently a no go.
But it is still possible for the sky to clear in time for launch.
A final decision could come about 45 minutes ahead of the 3:22 pm ET liftoff time.
That's when the "Go/no-go" poll officially begins. That means launch controllers in Florida will check in with other groups — including mission controllers at SpaceX's headquarters in California and weather officials at the 45th Space Wing — to make sure everyone is comfortable moving forward.
