Atlas IIAS Launch Postponed Again
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., 28-AUG-04 --
The launch of AC-167, an Atlas IIAS mission, was scrubbed today due to an insufficient level of liquid oxygen remaining in the ground storage tanks to complete launch operations. An anomalous valve position allowed the release of liquid oxygen to the drainage area.
The storage tanks will be refilled for a launch attempt Sunday. The new launch time is 6:57 p.m. EDT.
