As much as I hate Obama's nuking of Constellation the idea of making space launches far more commercial wasn't a bad one.
Damnit! Stupid weather, why does always sabotage things...?
Weather delays are a regular issue in this sort of situation.

It is really awesome that the United States is back in space and that we finally have a private space capability.
Hopefully it's just the first of many launches. I want to see the Moon become the second platform for further travels.
