NASA, Northrop Grumman Delay Cargo Resupply Launch Opportunity

A Northrop Grumman Cygnus resupply spacecraft, atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, stands tall at Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida on Saturday, Aug. 3, 2024, in preparations for a launch to the International Space Station.

NASA, Northrop Grumman, and SpaceX are standing down from the launch opportunity Saturday for the agency's Northrop Grumman 21st commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station due to weather conditions.

Teams are targeting no earlier than 11:02 a.m. EDT on Sunday, Aug. 4 for the next launch opportunity.
