are leaving say the king of prussia area coming in toward philly, trying to get to king of prussia, that ramp is block, you'll have to go all the way down to gulph road and flip the u-turn laverne and then come back on to the schuylkill expressway. here is a live look at route 309 northbound. a vehicle fire right near susquehanna. and in honor of the rocket launch, mike, ready? how about a glass of tang. remember tang? >> been a long time. we will hand at any hg every day for everything at every meal. >> little slow headed into king every prussia. a lot of it folks using 202 and flipping the u-turn and swedesford road. otherwise normal delays on both 95 and the schuylkill, and mass transit looking good. mike, alex, back to you. >> i cannot imagine what they are feeling in newtown bucks county big part of this orion spacecraft launch supposed to go off in two minutes, but will it? >> set to fly farther than any human spacecraft, the apollo moon program, designed to take humans into space. this first flight will be

to somebody so cool, you will love him, one of the lead engineers. common in here. good morning to you. so, we have a little boat issue. >> that's right. >> but we have large window. >> we have huge launch window, probably in the process right now of escort that boat out of the range. >> can you imagine being that guy? because they probably just wanted to have like a real good view, and like oh, we're in the danger zone. >> clear out, thank you very much. >> exactly. >> so now once that happens, you guys are so pumped about this, because this represents really a new chapter for nasa. >> that's right. we are setting up, getting ready to go back to deep space >> right. >> our feel of engineers working thon for a long time, real excited. i personally have been involved in building part of this vehicle. >> for years. seen them installed, been out in the dessert, today we get to fly it,. >> fantastic. i hear it is about seven minutes out from launch time.

so they've actually got the window set again. now, when it goes up there, what casino of thrust are we talking about? because the rocket system guys is delta four heavy one of the biggest, baddest launch systems around. so what kind of thrust is that? >> we are talking big time stuff here, all right? delta four chevy an orion, eventually will fly space launches, today the delta four heavy has enough throw to get us into the deep space, in that 3600-mile orbit that we want. and then we use the tester heat shield. >> so mike and alex, to let you know this, 3600 miles above the earth. do you have think about the international space station. that's at -- >> 200 -- >> yes. >> exactly, so it is 14 times higher than where iss is right now. >> that's how far it is going up there, and big reason for it. >> when you return from deep space, you start that very high speed.

and just like we get to 20,000-mile per hour re-entry, which gets us heating. >> think about that, 20,000 miles an hour. >> touchdown on the parachute 20 miles an hour when we're done. >> being so the heat shield now, around the heat shield, guys, around the heat shield, 25,000 degrees, heat shield itself. what does it hit? >> see leading edge of it will see around 4,000 degrees, on the hottest point. depending where you are at on the vehicle. >> all right. by the way that is past the temperature of the sun, so little hot. thank you so much, mike, alex, can't wait to show you the launch. >> okay, here is the thing, remind us real quickly, bucks county connection here. did you say there is a seven minute window snow. >> yes. >> seven, probably five minute window now, because we runoff at the mouth here because we're so excited but the newtown bucks county ttc is the company. these are the guys that make the quote unquote data acquisition system, 20,000 censors on owe ryan. they got to be interpreted by

>> the normal broadcast delay. so, i get this information almost immediately. >> clear for 717? >> still in five minuted hold, as soon as the five minute hold is done at 7:12, start the real countdown, then the launch will be five minute great can we do it here? >> our infrastructure is good here, don't have any problem with boats in the area or anything. so why don't we do our own launch right here. >> okay, we'll do our own launch derrick pit. >> this is 2-liter soda bottle. i'll do some propellent conditioning right now, put couple of squirts in like. >> this give it a swirl around. a minute here. then what i have is i have a very special cap, little hole in it. looks like regular soda cap. >> it does, special nasa approved soda bottle. >> okay. >> so here we go.

>> just take it away, there andrew, put underneathment look at that. >> wow, wow, wow. >> our mission work really great here. >> that was great. >> we didn't have to wait. >> no, immediate result, and our propellent systems are fabulous, so looking for some launch stuff, that is, a we have it going on here if you need some help. >> avenue joke, my son sent this. when do astronaut eat? >> i don't know. >> at launch time. >> oh, at launch time. >> good one. >> do you know why space rocks taste better than earth rocks? >> why? >> because they're little meteor. >> all right. >> comedy hour. >> we're here. >> fantastic. who needs to go to cape canaveral? >> just go over to the franklin institute. >> so here is the new window. we think this rock will take off again with the bucks county connection. and in seven, six and a half minutes, you will not miss it. okay. >> we will carry it live here.

please stick around, you will want to see this. >> the whole flight will take four and a half, five hours, follow the tracking of the spacecraft. >> at myfoxphilly.com. >> justice department will conduct its own investigation into the death of eric garner, who died after being put a choke-hold by a new york city police offerser. >> you know the story by, protesters poured into the street of manhattan yesterday evening. word spread not to indict the officer, hundreds of people, thousands, march from time square to rockefeller center not very far. >> many of the highways, like the west site highway, block for moment or two, actually about half hour. this is why. >> father of six who suffered from asthma, and confronted by police officer, group of police officer allegedly selling cigarette. they call them looseies. conclude choke hold contribute today his death.

the officer says he feels very badly about the death of eric garner, and hopes his family accepts his condolances, which they did not. >> christmas tradition lives here in philadelphia at philadelphia city hall. >> flipped the switch last night to light the christmas tree, 35-foot tall norway spruce from linvilla orchards in media. the tree lighting wasn't without some controversy, though. protesters took over 30th street station, and spilled out into the street before the tree lighting ceremony, staging a die-in to protest nerve job quite a scene at 30th street station. people laid out all across the street. >> the waiting room there. >> for four and a half minute, all the time that he was out there laying in the street. >> philadelphia police are looking for three men who attacked a teenager, in northern liberties, savage beating. >> now let's get to steve keeley live at police headquarters with the detail, steve? >> reporter: if you're wondering why we are talking

about three week old case, because they just found surveillance video, and it happened just nine blocks from our station, up fourth street, 900 block of fourth street in the northern liberties section, and the detective here at headquarters stay is you why almost always need to keep at least little icon tact with everybody passing by on the street, especially, when no one else is on the street at the time. icon tact gives you the split second moment to duck, maybe deter, savage sucker punch like the one thrown here, coward kind of attack. you see on this surveillance, victim just junior at central high school here in philly, friday night, november 14th, just past midnight, surveillance finally found the victim had his teeth knocked out, jaw broken, and concussion, being not just shrugged with fists, but after all of that you see his head get stomped into the street. >> he is outside waiting foray live and start jumping him, kicking him, punch him. i believe take cell phone from his pocket, leave him out

there, again, good thing that he was able to get to the hospital and that he didn't cause more injury, but, the injuries that he sustained was definitely something at that. these thugs assaulting him, don't know what's going through their minds, but they could have killed this young man. again, kick someone in the face in the head, the damage done, broken jaw, bow have been a fatal blow and killed this young man. >> the surveillance individual grow far away, but police hope someone seeing it would know three guys would be walking around together on friday night past midnight, maybe in the three weeks since, these guys, then brag about it, as criminals are known to do, there is a thousand dollars reward out, by the philly police, for good solid tip, and because that 17 year old didn't keep that icon tact, partly because he was hurt so bad, he can't give good description of the attacker. so police again remind everybody, know your suggestion, i know you can be a crime target, victim, in the bling after eye if you don't at least look at who is coming at you or passing you on the

street. >> 7:15, again, reminder real quickly here, that launch will happen in about three minutes. don't move. >> stay right here. breaking sport news. >> what do you mean? what? >> the sixers, wait for it, they won game last night. >> oh, look at that. >> we win. >> we win. >> the first win. >> sixers pick up their first win of the season last night minnesota against those timberwolfs. the sixers only manage to score eight appoints in the game. that was enough to win 85-77. mike at car err williams led the sixers with 20 points, 19 assists, the six remembers now one in 17 on the season, the nets will continue to own the record for that worse start in nba history. net you can keep t back in the day they lost 18 straight games. >> i was worried. i was worried here. glad we pulled off a win. >> in the last two minute, they came through, still tense. sue, can you squeeze in quick weather and then bob will do

traffic and get to the lawn snatch. >> we will talk as long as we can, then as soon as something start happening we're done. so we get started this morning, with a look at ultimate doppler radar. nothing to show you here, we are watching radar in florida watching everything that's happening in florida, but cape canaveral right now no rain happening temperatures are in the upper 60s, this morning. for us, we jump into the future tomorrow we have rain moving in, rain at night, looks like the rain will last through the day saturday on and off. we get to high later on of 44 degrees. let's go back to florida. we go to bob kelly? >> let's look at this, 452nd away from this darn thing. don't want to miss it. >> no, we don't. >> flight test one. >> exactly. >> about to begin. >> unmanned, probably -- let's take it full. won't be manned until 2021 i would think. so, again, here we go, should be 152nd away.

you don't want to look at me, do you? there you go. >> lucy, are we going to do this in a few second or not? >> well, we're hearing conflicting things. >> oh, my goodness. >> what? >> well, you know what? the best things do you have wait for, guys. the best things do you have wait for. up know this. so, we have got like a bakers dozen jelly donut delay going on right here, what bob kelly might say, something like that. >> look at the clock behind you. >> look at the clock. >> well, it does stop a the l just telling that you they have just because it stopped doesn't mean that window is elongated. they do that, just letting you know. how much, however, however you guys, have eagle eyes it, has stopped with three minutes 43 seconds to go. even though that official mass on twitter feed going -- here goes, new thinned just came, in wind launch violation for orion. on hold, not show stopper, window, window extended until

will the 44:00 a.m. breaking news right here on fox 29. 9:44 a.m. window extends. it doesn't mean 9:44 is when it goes, sue, common in here, remember sue, one of our lead engineers, what does winds launch violation means, that another nature did something wrong? >> that's what it sounds like to me. >> you've sum seans on what kind of launch winds you're going to experience. >> right. >> depending how close you are to a tower, those types of things, you have built in window, get enough thrust, just starting to lived off, went pushing on the vehicle, do you have take that into consideration. and i don't work on a racing. >> we have odd wording, winds launch violation, sounds like sue serio may have done something wrong, but sue i know you haven't, because i know you are behind there is but that's what it sounds like.

>> basically no an orion thing. they want to make sure when this goes up it, goes up in prime condition? >> every vehicle, that far built the abuse booster like this has winds constraint. >> we've got all kind of tests on the grounds, we know how it should be, how it should work. we've all got our predictions, expectations, that we'll go to prove to ourselves. >> exciting day. been working on this thing for years, like watching one of your kids. >> that's right. >> your baby. >> it is graduation day. >> graduation. well, can you get the graduation ceremony going? we're all waiting. >> all right. i'll make a quick phonecall. >> we got some power here at

fox 29. mike, al next. >> and again, i was looking forward that launch at one minute before sunrise, because it was really going to light up the sky. well, we won't have that, bus looks like we will still have a lawn this much morning, hang with us here on fox, you will not miss it, of course, the reason we're covering it so slowly is that a very important piece of mechanism inside that rocket, in this module, spacecraft, made right here in newtown bucks county. can you imagine what they're feeling, as this now is being delayed? wow. let's take a

>> live look at cape canaveral, will see the launch pretty soon. >> the reason we're coming in so closely, bucks county involved in this big time. this is test flight basically. there is going to be little module, little capsule on top. they'll blastoff into space, take two loops around the earth, then splash down near cab owe san lucas. nobody on board. probably won't have men and women on board until 20-21, as

we attempt to go to mars. >> would you ever want to go to mars? >> yes. >> six month trip to -- six months back. >> but it all begins with this. this morning. >> supposed to launch at 70:00, a then both bet in the area, you know, in case anything happens, don't want anybody crushed. >> first delay. then too winnie to go right now, now, they have until 9:44 eastern time to get this thing launched, we're on t okay? >> always number they're dropped, cracked, i know this all too well. cracks all over my phone. well, now, apple might have you covered, alex, with some new protection, what's this about? >> drop your phone. apple working on turns your

phone mid-air, make sure it lands at the right angle so it doesn't crack. like a cat, exactly. trying to go through all of these diagrams, this technology, super confusing but basically all you need to know, phone rotates mid-air, drops gracefully. you don't have to spend hundreds of dollars to fix your screen. >> that's wild. >> not sure when it will debut, because a lot of people spends extra money to row place their iphones, right? this could hurt them in the end, could be extra cost for people if you want this technology. not sure of the specifics, just yet. >> my dad always says, iphones come with crack screen, because everybody has cracks on their screens. >> i don't know if the rotation would fix up. >> would have to rotate and

flip. >> bounce off the toilet. >> lauren, what's your favorite cookie specially christmas cookie's. >> oh, the seven layer ones. >> wow. >> that's not a christmas cookie, but i have them on christmas. >> i like seven layer cookies. national cookie day, that's why i ask. >> oh, is it? >> i didn't knee. >> yes. >> let's go have a cook. >> i you better tell somebody. >> real. >> i what's your favorite canningy? >> we're asking everyone that. it is national cookie day. tweet us with the #fox29goodday. little later we'll go over the list of the best christmas cook us. >> do you know my favorite is not even in the top ten? >> i'm not surprised. >> i'm outraged. >> and jen friend showing you the five things you need in your holiday home this season. >> remember how ridiculous valor, valley forge flowers was? look, it is 7,000 square feet of a barn of holiday of decor of everything. anyone could ever need.

we'll show it in just a few minute. >> another life look at cave canaveral, orion, ready for you to launch. >> much closer, just above the very close. oh, that camera will be destroyed!

my one word to describe ac would be laid back. relaxing getaway fun unique beautiful serenity shenanigans refreshing shopping surprising happy place you know what i mean? i want to say friendly. exhilarating adventure the boardwalk #nosleep it's a great weekend. there is so much to do here. it's so great to have it so close. it's just a great location, a great place to be. we love atlantic city.

>> clock 30, waiting for orion to take off this morning. mainly because of bucks county, bucks county people on pins and needles right now, they work for newtown, bucks county company. so all here waiting with you, folks. now, we had a boat in the area. so didn't launch at 70:00, a. >> first this year. >> then we had wind issues, apparently the wind issues getting worse. >> we have until the windows until 9:44 this morning. so, hopefully, maybe things could die down when it comes to the winds. >> 7:30, listen to this. >> weather, sore. >> i let's go to sue. >> she's having even a better

sounds bite. >> all right, oh, no, chillier start today. we've got the shades on bus stop buddy check this out. sixers cap, yes, they won, last night, i know, can't believe i said. that will temperatures are chilly, though, in the 30's, 34 degrees, 8-mile per hour winds, 44, is our high temperature today with sunshine, and just few clouds, as you just saw outside. then tonight, we're down to about 32 degrees, with cloud cover, but we go the whole day, and the whole night, with no precipitation, and it will actually be a pretty good looking day today. so that takes care of your thursday. we'll talk about the weekend, first weekend of december forecast. just ahead. so, bob kelly, waist going on? >> sue, 7:31, good thursday morning, we have been dealing with overturned tractor-trailer all morning long, video from skyfox king every king of prussia. if you ordered the new york times, this tractor-trailer, filled to the brim here, with

new york times newspapers. now, all over the grass, on the ramp from the eastbound schuylkill to head north on 202, basically shutting off access to the king of prussia interchange, so going to the maps. anyone coming out of the toll plaza here, from the turnpike, going east on the schuylkill expressway no access 202 into the king every prussia mall. do you have continue coming in toward the city, and then flip the u-turn laverne at gulph road. that will take you back out toward the schuylkill. probably going to be with us for most of our morning rush hour. with that clean up. the roosevelt boulevard at welsh rd., no cross traffic permitted because the traffic lights are out. so use grant or woodward as your options. there is an accident, mid-span on the walt whitman bridge cautioning delays coming into philadelphia. if your leaving jersey right now, best bet, maybe the ben franklin bridge, or the betsy ross, would be a good alternate. mike, alex, back over to you.

>> maybe the words before he died, protesters breaking out in the street of manhattan following grand jury, decision, not to indict a new york city police officer, in the death of eric garner. garner died after being put a choke-hold, as officers tried to arrest him for selling untaxed cigarettes, they call them loose ies on the street. >> from the university of pennsylvania, morning. >> looking at the headlines, front page of the daily news, can't believe our eyes. video clearly shows new york cops choking man. so why is he off the hook? hitter? >> i have to tell you, this is heart breaking to me. because i have to trust the system as part of my job. i have to ask my clients to trust the system. here i really think the system haslett us down. the grand jury just don't seem to work when it comes to police officers. >> and there is a number of

reasons for. that will you know, 99.9% indictment rate in general in the u.s. police officers tend not to be indicted. people trust police officers. the prosecutors presenting these cases have to work with the police officers. that's the change, in my opinion, that needs to be made. >> so instead of the district attorney and the grand jury there in staten island where a lot of police officer live, have somebody from the outside look at the case? >> in new york call for special prosecute tears do these kind of cases, people outside the community to determine whether or not to press charges. i think that's something that needs to be considered. >> again, we not in that room not on the grand jury of over 20 people of all races. we don't know what -- >> i respect this grab jury, red every words of the ferguson grand jury. they have difficult job. but they are given the information, the prosecutor choose toss give them. and that makes it a difficult thing for everybody concerned. >> and think what's different with ferguson, didn't have video. >> the individual woe was very

evident. once again, what we see is just how black bodies are disposable in american democracy, non-person, none hesitance i, not how many a.m. everybody even with a cam, are individual saying i can't breathe, so we have a lot of challenges in our system, we have a lot of challenges with police brutality in our community, and we have to stop looking at black humanity as there is a problem, the problem is the police, who are occupying themselves, in communities from the terroristic stand point, killing unarmed black makes, 12 year old in cleveland, so for the, so on. >> people will say well, just would have complied, wouldn't be dead. >> well, the choke hold outlawed in new york. not outlawed -- >> comply, right? the whole notion that here is a individual who is not arm. here is a individual, the mitt is out there, six-five, he is big, that's what's working. >> working in the psyche. >> even the officer he called it more a wrestling move. he said if he didn't have the preexist willing conditions,

asthma, maybe it wouldn't have turn out did -- >> and being obese -- >> let's say he is white, isn't it still police brutality case? >> it doesn't happen. >> i have to disagree with that, in maryland in 2013 there was downe syndrome child who died after the police tried to stop him exact same circumstances. also ruled a homicide. also taken to a grand jury. also the police officers were not indicted. this is not just a racial thing. there is a racial component, but a police officer -- >> but in america, democracy, white officers, are allowed to get off killing black bod that's are disposable. black office remembers not killing white males. white officers aren't killing white males. black not given the opportunity for these individuals to live -- >> discussion with somebody who teaches, a professor, and an attorney. >> but i have to say this is not police officers. we're kind of putting them altogether. most police officers are doing their jobs tremendously. so the system needs to be changed so that everyone can

trust one another. >> that's the big thing, lack of trust. >> also deeply rooted in the psyche of white supremacy, officers, certainly a lot of officers put their lives on the line for all communities. what we're seg in american democracy is disposal of black bod its being rendered sub human. you can engage in police brutality because you don't see them as humans. we need to see the full humanity in everyone. >> cameras on every police officer's vest. that will going to work, the president -- but camera right in front of the face there. >> we need anti-racism training in all of our police departments. >> , that but also difference in the cameras. >> this cameras being held by someone else. the police officer said he knew the camera with a was there. i'm not so sure that's true. if you know you are wearing a camera i would think -- >> it shouldn't have to come to a camera though. >> but we are in a position where maybe it does wyche to take the steps. what else can we do. >> sore bye this rocket launch. >> hopefully it will happen.

crossing our fingers. >> another big story today. >> back to florida, another live look. >> now it looks like it is raining. i don't know that will -- we will ' see. check with lies, something wrong with the wind, the both check with lies, something wrong with the wind, the both is out of here, now it is it'll come from my kitchen. the biggest surprise this season won't come from an upset, try our new philly cheesesteak pizza. a large for $12. add a red kettle cookie for $6 and a portion of the proceeds go to the salvation army. better ingredients. better pizza

papa john's.

>> another live at cape can after ram, waiting and hopefully, orion can lawn this much morning. >> let's find out from somebody standing right there. lucy, what are you hearing? >> all right, we still have a launch window open until 9:44 this morning. so we have still got time. it is all good. but you can see the clock still stopped. so we're going to wait and see how these winds play out. i wanted to tell you, were you talking about the newtown bucks county company ttc that's heavily involved in today's lawn: there is another company, just down i-95, called atk defense group. these guys make something that's critical to this mission. if you look at orion there is cone on the top of it, that's actually a shroud over the capsule itself. that will shroud called the launch of force system. it is he can actually what it

sound like, if something were to go wrong either on the pad, say apollo one, the fire on the pad, if something were to go wrong on the pad there is launch system would take off four had you thousand pounds every thrust, zero to 500 miles in three seconds and it is out of there. so it takes it, it takes orion out of the way if anything bad happened. if it happened in the air like the challenger tragedy, for instance it, could take those astronaunts and peel them away from anything that bad that happened, re orient it, with heat shield down, and have these guys drop back in to earth, either in the ocean, or on land, and be safe with a parachute system. it is amazing, 30% of the work force by the way, guys, delaware valley. so all these guys are watching, too. >> that is amazing. so what's that -- you said down i59? >> elkton, maryland, atk defense group. they do a lot of work with that is a this is super important program for them. they do like a lot of solid rocket propellents, so they're keying to launch, make couple

of business motorsports. >> cool. >> you are watching over there at tell he tron innings corporation in new castle, tweet us @mikefox29, at alex fox 29. how are you dealing? is it just driving you crazy, working on this for years and you want it launch. working on this for years and you want it launch. we'll stay

deciding between buying food and health care is something else. healthy pa is now here to help, with name-brand health insurance

okay, my nasa app says we're still in a hold. we're hearing nasa directly they may do this in the next minute. lucy, what are you hearing at cape canaveral? >> well, we were a go for launch just about minute ago,

but if you take a look, the countdown clock has stopped again. hearing few different things, there may be another quote unquote wind violation, but i'm not sure. however, i've got somebody very, very cool standing by, i would like to introduce him to you. common in here. this is shuttle commander, brian duffy, such a pleasure and honor to have you here with us. >> thanks for having me. >> now, you chanted two shuttle flies, piloted two shuttle flights, today must be huge day. >> well, it is. specially when you get to this point right here. i've been here before where you are casino every down, and it can be frustrating, but one thing that space exploration teaches you is patience. we're learning that today. >> patience, what is happening right now, but this mission is all about of course testing it to mixture shah that astronaunts are safe priority, one for nasa of course, and coming in on the shuttle you, low earth orbit, coming in from the international space station watch was that like coming in?

>> very different than this. so we were coming from 220 miles or so, and we would turn around, slow down little bit, and would burn over the indian ocean to land here, then we would flip around, and to 40 degrees angle, and come in at very shallow angle. >> angles are all key when talking about coming in through the atmosphere. >> yes, so you're controlling the angle that you come in, controls the amount of heat that the vehicle -- >> how did you feel like when you were coming in? >> you feel initially you are still weightless. so you feel great. and then as gravity starts coming on, we would even float a pencil, we would float a pencil there, and as the g's came on very slowly, the pencil would slowly drift toward the floor, of course. >> as the juice continued the pencil hit? >> hopefully stays on the floor, yes. >> this is coming in, it 14 times higher than the international space station. >> right. >> to get more of the type of

feel that you would have coming in from deep space. what's going to be like compared to shut until. >> yep, that will be completely different experience. it is coming in, they're going to 3600 miles. we were only 220 miles. they were going to up 3600 miles. >> craze. >> i they're going to come in at 84% of the velocity that would you have here coming back from a moon. >> okay. >> so we were going about 17,000 miles an hour. >> yes. >> seventeen-a. and this is going to be going 20,000 miles an hour, coming in, much safer. we would see about 3,000 degrees, temperature, as we were coming in. >> which is hard to wrap your minds around, 3,000, that's hotter than molten lava. >> it is, yes, that's why we had all of those special tiles, protect us. and this is going to see 4,000 degrees as it is coming in. >> and it has the biggest heat tile ever made. just whole top of the capsule? >> bottom part, it would be the front end coming in. >> yes. >> my nasa app has started up

again. >> how much time do we have? >> 3:07. what's the clock say behind you? >> 3:05. we're still holding. we're hearing some stuff. >> we'll keep, we will keep our ear on it, and the moment i hear we are go for launch you know ill raise the flag and say we got to tell you about it. >> for sure. >> all right, guys. >> derrick? >> yes, let's go back to kingsley with eric. >> what's his app say? >> derrick, what is going on? why, what, is it a human rebooting this. >> once the countdown against down to three, four minutes, everything in the whole system is on automatic operation. so, there is no person stand interesting with a stop watch with their finger on the button about to hit the button. it is all being run automatically. well, censor all throughout the system detecting win speed, temperatures, air pressure, all of that sort of stuff, also feed into the system. so, when the win speed is detected to be above 21 miles

per hour, the system automatically shuts down. because that can't be a violation, they can't have the win speed hire than 21 miles an hour, rather than depend on human seeing that, they youth automated systems all around to detect the wind violation, that shuts the system down, then we have to go back and just reboot. >> so you have phone app. we have a phone app in the studio. what's your app actually saying right now? >> what my app is saying right now, still telling me that there was an orion launch window violation, that means the wind speed was too hi, right now we're awaiting a new launch time. >> okay. >> so as soon as we get that launch time we will know when that will be. what it look like they're doing is they're setting 20 minute windows, like 20 minute holds. >> q? >> to see if the wind will come down then they start the clock again and they always start the clock, looks like, starting the clock with four minutes left in the countdown. >> got you. >> mike, what's going snob. >> here is the thing. my app says it is in countdown mothered, and it is one minute and 112th.

so i think we should hang with this because i don't know waist going on. >> mike's app is saying one thing, your app is saying another thing. >> of course ours is right. >> really, did he snuck. >> well, let's just watch. because when we watch it, then we know for sure what's going on. >> let's punch up the rocket. my little app says it will go in 44 end. >> this is the same app that derrick recommended. >> his app is saying 442nd. mike's app is saying 44 end. >> really? >> so we'll see what happens. >> yes, we'll see. >> you know there is isn't rocket science. oh, wait, it is. >> yes, it is. >> $307 million mission, exploring deep space. >> by the way, i thought nasa was broke, this thing funded back there during the george w. bush administration. so this was already paid for. >> so this has been years in the making. exploration flight test one. what is it saying now? >> my app is nine, eight,
