New Launch Time: 8:40 a.m. EST

Launch managers now are targeting the drop and launch of the Orbital ATK Pegasus XL rocket with NASA’s CYGNSS spacecraft for 8:40 a.m. EST. The L-1011’s anticipated departure time is now 7:37 a.m., allowing time for the pilot to navigate around some precipitation on the way to the drop point. This adjusted timeline keeps NASA within today’s launch window. Other than the fog — which continues to burn off now that the sun has risen — no other issues are under discussion. The drop time could still be adjusted depending on flight conditions. Today’s launch window extends to 9:19 a.m.
