 Weather forecasters are predicting an 80% chance of suitable launch conditions for lift-off tomorrow of GPS 2R-20 from Cape Canaveral atop a Delta 2 launch vehicle.
The launch window runs for 15mins from 4.34am EDT (8.34am UK). It has been over a year since the last Delta 2 launch and this is the first of two scheduled launches this year with the second being the last Delta 2 launch and the last 2R type satellite.
Once these last two GPS 2R models have been launched the next phase will be the launch of the GPS 2F vehicles which require the larger Atlas 5 delivery vehicles.
