But also the weather has to cooperate. so how confident do you feel about a launch between that two-hour window beginning at 2:17 eastern and 4:17? >> yeah, my first shuttle flight we scrubbed for a thin cloud deck over the shuttle for the last 50 years we have been launching rockets and scrubbing for florida thunderstorms. so it sounds pretty good. its not -- theres not a big storm system moving through. but, you know, how confident do you feel that the market is going to go up or down on monda...

Good work really happened today. >> bill nelson has his shuttle flight scrubbed four times. its routine for any space flight. >> this is a brand-new rocket. it is not going to fly until it is ready. the complexity is daunting. when you bring it all into focus of a countdown. >> this rocket is still the only rocket in the world that is capable of caring people to the moon and it is very close to being ready to launch. there is a similar rocket by space x but is not quite ready yet. that will be f...

Including vice president kamala harris. >> today was a very important day. and what a lot of folks might be disappointed that the launch did not actually happen. a lot of good work really happen today. >> thats administrator, bill nelson, whose own shuttle flight was scrubbed four times reminded that these kind of delays are routine for any spaceflight. but especially a first test flight. >> this is a brand-new rocket. it is not going to fly until it is ready. the list to say the complexity is d...

I can remember being my first shuttle flight in 1999, sts-103, we held one of our -- or aborted one of our launch not because they thought there was anything wrong with the vehicle, but there was something wrong with the paper work. and like you said, you know, cross the ts and dot the is is important here as well. >> so theyre saying this is -- theyre just checking out a few things, could be normal, could be -- to your point, maybe it is paperwork. sometimes you get stuck at the gate on a regul...

The next thing to look for is separation of first stage from capsule. you want that to be very successful and safe. once that happens, theyve gone past the point where they may have to worry about an abort. thats good too. short flight like this, there are a few significant milestones, launch, separation of first stage, and then as they come back, deployment of parachutes and landing system. it is very simplistic compared to what the shuttle flight that mae referred to did. but it is sophisticat...

Trump campaign was triggered by the steele dossier. its also a fact that the first half of our investigation into donald trump that led us to hire chris steele was funded by the republicans. so there was no democratic conspiracy to frame donald trump. ive never been to ukraine. the idea that the dossier comes from ukraine is yet another phony conspiracy theory. >> and in fact rudy giuliani was propagating that only in recent days. tell us how you happened to run into him and tried to set him str...
