Historic SpaceX launch delayed due to bad weather, next attempt coming this weekend

History will be made this weekend at Cape Canaveral, Florida, as SpaceX launches astronauts into space for the first time. Not only will this be the first time that the privately owned company is sending astronauts into space, but it will be the first time that astronauts have launched from the United States in nearly a decade. The launch was originally set for Wednesday, May 27 at 4:33 p.m. EDT, but poor weather conditions forced SpaceX and NASA to delay the launch. The next launch attempt will be on Saturday, May 30 at 3:22 p.m. EDT. More
