Отбой за 55 секунд до старта по погоде.

SCRUB! The persistent gloomy weather at Cape Canaveral this afternoon will keep the United Launch Alliance Delta 4-Heavy rocket from flying today to deliver a classified U.S. national security satellite into space.

A combination of rain, clouds and lightning meant it was unsafe to permit the triple-barrel rocket launch during its lengthy opportunity today.

Liftoff of the NROL-37 mission is rescheduled for Saturday at 1:51 p.m. EDT (1751 GMT). Forecasters say there is a 60 percent chance of acceptable weather then.

Over the next couple of hours, the 235-foot-tall rocket will be safed and its 465,000 gallons of cryogenic fuel and oxidizer drained back into the launch pad storage spheres.

When the rocket does fly, it will carry a top-secret payload to orbit for the National Reconnaissance Office, the agency responsible for the design and operation of the country's fleet of spy satellites.

Experts believe the payload is an eavesdropping spacecraft that will be launched into a circular geosynchronous orbit 22,300 miles high to perform intelligence-gathering on terrorist networks and adversarial nations for U.S. warfighters and policy-makers.

1757 GMT (1:57 p.m. EDT)
HOLD FOR WEATHER.
