NASA rocket launch from Wallops Flight Facility set for tonight after 5 delays Updated 2:10 PM; That’s the big question on hand, as the national space agency has been stymied by Mother Nature five days in a row. The rescheduled launches on Saturday, Sunday and Monday were each scrubbed by upper-level winds that were deemed unsafe for the mission. Then on Tuesday night, with the rocket on the launch pad and conditions looking favorable at first, the launch was called off with about 1 minute to go in the 40-minute launch window because skies in Bermuda and at the Wallops Flight Facility were deemed to be too cloudy.
