Launch Delay & Reasons - The launch was scrubbed due to violation of weather rules, specifically potential thunderstorms [1][3][4][5] - Convective weather poses a significant risk, leading to the decision to call off the launch [3] - Weather conditions are a critical factor, and no chances are taken [6] Trajectory & Timing - Precise timing is essential for intersecting with the International Space Station (ISS) [6][10][11] - The ISS orbits at approximately 220 miles (354 kilometers) above Earth, traveling at 17,000 mph (27,359 km/h) [10][11] - A tight launch window exists to achieve the correct altitude and speed for ISS rendezvous [11] Safety Protocols & Procedures - Extensive safety protocols are in place to ensure astronaut safety [9] - The process includes making the rocket safe and removing the astronauts [8] - All checks are repeated before the next launch attempt [9] Reschedule & Future Plans - The launch has been rescheduled for tomorrow at 11:43 [12] - The entire launch process will be repeated [8][9] - Recalculation of trajectory is necessary after a scrub [6] Technical Details - The rocket uses liquid oxygen and kerosene as fuel [11][12]
