Ares I-X Delayed Again

NASA has delayed the rollout of the Ares I-X rocket by a few hours. The new rollout time is 00:01 EDT (04:01 GMT) Tuesday morning.

They are taking their sweet time, but it is going to be worth it to see the next generation space hardware at the launch pad. It will be the first time a rocket stack intended for human spaceflight has been secured to a pad since the Apollo era, and a stark reminder that the Space Shuttle era is about to come to a close.

SpacerNote: Must look in to visiting Florida around the time of the last Shuttle launch.
