T-minus 85 minutes. We're reporting fr om NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, wh ere overcast skies hang over the Falcon 9 launch pad as final preparations are underway for fueling.

Several major steps are coming up in the next few minutes, including the start of fueling of the rocket's two stages with RP-1 kerosene. A poll before fueling scheduled at 4:37 p.m. EDT (2037 GMT).
The densified fuel should begin pumping aboard the rocket around 4:45 p.m. EDT (2045 GMT).
Liquid oxygen loading begins at 5:10 p.m. EDT (2110 GMT).

06/01/2017 23:31
The launch time has shifted slightly to 5:55:53 p.m. EDT (2155:53 GMT), two seconds later than the previous target.

SpaceX is again not providing any real-time updates on the progress of this afternoon's countdown, but vapors are visible near the Falcon 9 rocket, an indication that fueling preparations have begun.

Remember, they won't prop load the Falcon 9 if the weather is looking bad. Instantaneous window too. Very challenging.

An interesting thing I heard is Elon always holds the final decision on a scrub. No idea if that's true, but if so, his phone may be busy.

Falcon 9 is in prop load preps. Taking it to the wire for load or scrub. Scrub is likely, but not official. Elon has the final say.
