The next scheduled mission departs at 6:00pm EDT, so I don't know if that is the one they are talking about. I suppose the crew needs to get some rest so I don't know how long they will wait for the weather over Keesler AFB is Mississippi to clear before the mission that was supposed to depart at 5:30am EDT is canceled. |
