Weather Delays Launch of NASA?s PACE Mission
NASA and SpaceX are standing down from the Wednesday, Feb. 7, launch of the agency?s Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission due to ground winds preventing prelaunch checkouts. The team is targeting liftoff at 1:33 a.m. EST Thursday, Feb. 8, on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
The satellite and rocket remain healthy and ready for launch.
Live launch coverage will begin on NASA+ and NASA TV public channel at 12:45 a.m. EST on Feb. 8.
