HESSI delayed
Hello Larry -
This marks the end of Orbital Science's long string of successful launches with the Pegasus. HESSI was due to go up later this week, and with the recent reversal in the Sun's magnetic field the launch had a fairly high need to get off now -
My guess at this point is that vibration from turbulence thrown off from the front mounted X-43 led to failure - we'll see, hopefully within a week or so -
back to work
