NORFOLK, Va. (AP) - The first attempt to launch a rocket from the mid-Atlantic region's commercial spaceport has been delayed until at least Friday while experts work on a software glitch in the Air Force satellite that is its main payload, officials said Tuesday.
The problem with the software for the TacSat-2 satellite surfaced Sunday night, forcing Monday's scheduled launch to be scrubbed.
The satellite will test the military's ability to quickly transmit images of enemy targets to battlefield commanders.
