24-Sep-07 | Dawn delayed by a day
Stormy weather at Cape Canaveral prevented hypergolic propellant loading of the Delta II second stage on Sunday. This has been a common issue lately: Phoenix slipped by a day in August, and before that Dawn also saw a one-day slip prior to its two-and-a-half-month postponement. The launch of Dawn is now scheduled for Thursday, 27 September, with a 29-minute window opening at 11:20 UTC.
