Bad weather halts historic Space X launch

Poor weather has forced SpaceX to call off the launch of NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken to the International Space Station (ISS). The two men were due to go up from the Kennedy Space Center in what would have been the first orbital mission from the US in nine years. But unfavorable atmospheric conditions prompted controllers to call a stop just 16 minutes before lift-off. The next opportunity for SpaceX and NASA will come on Saturday. If that's no good, there would be a third opportunity on Sunday. The frustration was that conditions just an hour after the designated launch time of 16:33 EDT were probably acceptable. But this was an instantaneous launch window where the SpaceX Falcon rocket and its Dragon crew capsule had to leave on time or they wouldn't be able to catch the space station. There is great interest in this mission. Not since the retirement of the shuttles in 2011 has America been able to launch its own astronauts into space - a big gap in which the US has had to rely on Russian Soyuz…

Ol’ Doc Cooper lived close by. Talk about thick orange blood. Maybe the three most passionate Cowboys ever. Stillwater’s a cool place. You can conduct business on neighborhood sidewalks. Birdwell had been on the job about six months when one evening, Iba walked down the street with Eddie Sutton in tow. “Harry,” Iba told Birdwell, “I want you to know Eddie, because I’m really interested in getting him back here as men’s basketball coach.” Funny to think about now, that anyone had to sell OSU on Sutton.
