get ready, get set...

get ready, get set...

Out of the Cradle is liveblogging the imminent SpaceX Falcon launch.

Update: High winds and problems with the LOX refueling tanks have forced the scrubbing of today's launch, which has been rescheduled for tomorrow.

Update 2: It turns out that an auxiliary liquid oxygen fill tank manual vent valve was incorrectly set to vent, causing the rocket to lose too much liquid oxygen. The launch has been pushed back to mid-December while more liquid oxygen is shipped from Hawaii to Omelek Island.
