We have scrubbed the July 13 launch attempt at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility of the Black Brant V and Terrier-Improved Orion sounding rockets to allow the launch team time to complete preparations of the rockets and to check out the payload systems.

The rockets are carrying experiments as part of a NASA study of the ionosphere. The next launch attempt is scheduled for Thursday, July 14, between 9:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. The backup launch days are July 15 – 23.
