Orion Post-Scrub News Conference

A news conference was held at Kennedy Space Center, on Dec. 4 to discuss the launch postponement of the first flight test for NASA’s Orion spacecraft. The launch was scrubbed because of an issue related to fill and drain valves on the Delta IV Heavy rocket that teams could not troubleshoot by the time the launch window expired. The next launch window opens at 7:05 a.m. Eastern on Friday, Dec. 5. NASA Television coverage of the Friday, Dec. 5 launch attempt begins at 6 a.m. EST.

If Orion flies on Friday, that would be a great accomplishment to finish off the week, for everyone working on the program.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I'm really thrilled about these new developments - I hope everything goes well! . Thank you for uploading this to Youtube.

I'm glad the reporter asked the question, we probably all had, in regards to the winds.  That exact same topic was mentioned during a show about the new Norwegian Cruise Lines - Epic ship and dealing with the 'sail' effect of such a large surface area.

did the guy of the boat get arrested ? I was there today and it looks like the first attempt was in very good shape  to GO but because of that incident everything was scrub (screwed)  

[Juurus]

I want a video footage of recovering the capsule please

[freespeachrulez]

The valves have worked very very well..So did the O-rings on the SRB's..

Dan Collins would be wicked on a debating team.
Wish their were more guys like him when I was in aerospace.

NASA don't risk losing everything you have achieved so far be sure you are 100℅ correct with everything.
Good luck for tomorrow.

Amazing, with all that sometimes seems wrong with humans, and Americans. I have such a proud and awesome feeling watching this. 100 years from now it may seem primitive, but we will have left such a positive mark in history.

So amazing, and so proud to be an American.

I was disappointed, and tired, so I went back to bed after the first hour.

Обстоятельно изложена Информация - О Первом испытательном Полете. И ПОЖЕЛАНИЯ на Будущее - в Освоении Космических Пространств - Весьма ОПТИМИСТИЧНЫ. Это РАДУЕТ!

[electrostaticionengines]

It seem strange the valve problem wasn't addressed and corrected before today. They know about the valve problem from earlier launches

[STS]

I wonder what they do with all of that fuel that they have to empty out?  Also, why do they have to empty it and re-fuel in the first place?  Is it a temperature issue?

I wonder why they don't heat those valves.

Now how much money do you think these people make?
