Eh, they've worked with them before, so they've got a relationship, but this suggests to me that they've still got tech issues going on, which is troubling.

Just Aborted.

Hearing the LOX sat too long and caused ice build-up on the wessel. Couldn't get the lift so aborted.

And risks like this are insured.

I could buy that. Hope it's minor enough that they can try again tomorrow.

4th time's a charm?

The ships captain should be keel-hauled!

The additional cost should be deferred to that damned ship. We'd be in orbit otherwise.

Now NOT scrubbed. 51m left on launch window. This is all over the place.

No joke. At this rate, I almost wish they would just scrub. I'll be holding my breath expecting it to blow up if they go for it tonight still.

50 minutes still left to the launch window. Could still go tonight.

DaFace 02-28-2016 06:33 PM
And NOW we're scrubbed. Watching rocket launches takes a lot of effort sometimes. :)

Scooter LaCanforno 02-28-2016 06:34 PM
Just Scrubbed for the night. No future date as yet.

So the boat is at fault, but the supercooled LOX is just more susceptible to issues like this.

The boat owner is apparently getting slammed via twitter.
