Crew-6 Launch Scrubbed For Ground Systems Issue - AVweb

Citing a ground systems issue, NASA and SpaceX scrubbed Monday’s planned launch of the Crew-6 mission to the International Space Station (ISS). According to NASA, the decision was made in order to allow an investigation into “an issue preventing data from confirming a full load of the ignition source for the Falcon 9 first stage Merlin engines.” The agency noted that the Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft are currently in a safe configuration awaiting the next launch attempt.

“‘I’m proud of the NASA and SpaceX teams’ focus and dedication to keeping Crew-6 safe,’ said NASA Administrator Bill Nelson." What’s “NASA” got to do with it, besides hindering space flight while wasting $billions of taxpayers’ money?

AKA “blowin’ smoke”.

Exactly. NASA, FAA and EPA should be eliminated allowing businesses to operate as they see fit without the burden of over regulation. Why do we still have an ATF? Why is the Coast Guard under Mayor Pete and the DOT? Make the Coast Guard part of the Navy and then get rid of the DOT too.

Well said.

May I add the DOE and department of education.
