Teams are taking a closer look at a ground-side helium leak on the Quick Disconnect umbilical. Falcon and Dragon remain healthy and the crew continues to be ready for their multi-day mission to low-Earth orbit. Next launch opportunity is no earlier than Wednesday, August 28 →

Well that’s that. Tomorrow it is

The Polaris launch has sipped a day to now Wednesday at 3:38AM EDT. The additional time is needed for checks and to resolve a ground-side helium leak on the Quick Disconnect umbilical. 📸- Matt Cutshall for NHS

The Polaris launch will have to wait just a little bit longer. Unfavorable weather conditions for recovery have scrubbed the launch tonight.

The next attempt for the Polaris mission is now Friday at 3:38AM EDT. #SpaceX

While we wait we still have a Starlink launch at 2:54AM EDT.

Soon.

😞

VAB vibes. #NASA

Happy to hear that SpaceX can resume launching. I’m so looking forward to the Polaris launch! #SpaceX

So if Spacex launches Starlink tonight, then there won’t be a drone ship for the Polaris Dawn launch if they are going for the Sunday window. 🤔

Welcome back!

For the first time Yellowcard performs at Epcot! Great show gentlemen!

Rest in Peace Lord Vader

Rest in peace may the force be with you always

God speed Polaris May your journey be blessed and full of enrichment. #SpaceX

So excited for the Polaris team. Y’all are definitely getting treated!

Just a thought here. It would be amazing if the Polaris team brought a Darth Vader figure or something to honor the late James Earl Jones so at least a part of his legacy actually got to see space. I know Jared Isaacman was a Star Wars fan with that Empire logo on his lid.

The Polaris mission has now taken all the excitement. So pumped and in awe of this mission.

Welcome home Polaris crew!
