maybe, late today or tommorrow. depends on the weather which has been very uncooperative. they've been trying almost 2 weeks now to get thuraya 3 up and i'm sensing some tension/frustration at sea launch.

Rumor says that it's delayed to mid December...yet they're setting the rocket back vertical again...so I'm pretty confused.

If you look at the live webcam, the rocket has been set up again for launch.

They will attempt to launch each day until 11/29. If they cannot launch by 11/29 they will delay to January. This is mostly due to the fact that the command ship is running short of supplies.
