CAPE CANAVERAL AFS, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35 ORLANDO) -
A United Launch Alliance Atlas V stands ready for launch at Space Launch Complex-41 with NASA's twin Radiation Belt Storm Probes (RBSP) payload. Launch is set for Thursday, Aug. 30 at 4:05 a.m.
A previously scheduled launch was scrubbed due to weather conditions associated
with lightning, according to NASA.
RBSP will study changes in Earth's space environment caused by the sun that can disable satellites, create power grid failures and disrupt GPS service.
