A United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket will launch the new Space Based Infrared System GEO Flight 4 satellite for the U.S. Air Force at 7:52 p.m. EST (0052 GMT). The mission has a 40-minute launch window.
I want to go over for the SpaceX Falcon Heavy. I too remember going to the Cape for two Apollo launches. A memorable sight.
Saw the Apollo night shot back in the day from 200 miles away. The first stage separation is spectacular.
Just saw this on the space.com site:
“Update Jan. 18, 7:10 p.m. EST: ULA has scrubbed today’s launch. No word yet of a reschedule.”
