The Atlas V rocket with Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner atop remain ready for launch from Space Launch Complex 41 at the Cape. Starliner’s destination is the International Space Station.

Meteorologists with the U.S. Air Force 45th Weather Squadron continue to predict an 80% chance of favorable weather for launch early this morning. Primary concerns for launch day are the Cumulus Cloud Rule and User Ground Winds violations during the instantaneous launch window.
