Gee, this is getting repetitive… this is the third date change for the launch of NASA’s GLAST spacecraft aboard a United Launch Alliance Delta II rocket—now scheduled for Monday, June 7th. The launch window extends from 11:45 a.m. to 1:40 p.m. EDT and remains unchanged through August 7. NASA had targeted June 5 for the GLAST launch aboard a Delta II rocket. Additional time was necessary for the Delta II launch team to assure that open engineering issues, which have been under review, are satisfactorily resolved. Launch commentary on NASA Television (media channel 103) will start at 9:45 a.m. And we’ll be on “standby” in case another launch date is required.
