It’s just a pity I won’t be watching it.
On Wednesday, at around quarter past 8 in the evening (UK time) SpaceX’s First Manned Mission (and NASA’s First in nine Years) was scrubbed. I was a bit concerned when I first tuned into the feed and around half hour later it was bucketing it down with rain. It turns out the culprit was a thunder storm just down the way, that had left the air charged and passed a risk to the astronauts.

The good news is though that today we get to do it all again. This time I will not be live blogging though as I’m suffering with one of my migraines. Even writing this article is making it worse so staring at a screen for 24 hours won’t do me much good, which really sucks. If I’m feeling up to it a bit late I may tweet a couple of bit between being unconscious. You can follow me here @jimdhope.
I wish everyone involved the best of luck.
