NASA is poring through flight data following the successful Oct. 28 launch of the Ares I-X demonstrator from Launch Pad 39B at Kennedy Space Center, Fla., after delaying liftoff by a day because of a series of frustrating weather issues with high upper-level winds and static-laden clouds.
Boeing is officially confirming its North Charleston, S.C., facility as the location for a second final assembly site for the 787, marking the first time it has moved commercial jet assembly out of Washington state. The move follows the breakdown of last-ditch negotiations with the International Association of Machinists (IAM) in Seattle over conditions that would have enabled the line to be placed alongside its existing 787-8 line at Everett, Wash.
Uncertain weather over Kennedy Space Center, Fla., forced NASA to abandon its first attempt to launch the Ares I-X demonstration and test vehicle Oct. 27, so the agency is targeting another attempt Oct. 28. Countdown to launch, originally set for 8 a.m. Eastern time, at one point came within 2 minutes 38 seconds of liftoff until clouds came too close to Launch Pad 39B.
