Launch Delays Expected After Booster Anomaly Grounds Ula Rocket
The US Space Force is working to adjust its mission schedule due to uncertainty surrounding the Vulcan rocket, which was grounded after a booster anomaly on February 12. The issue may cause at least a six-month delay to any Vulcan launch, according to lawmakers. Pentagon officials are facing questions from lawmakers on the fallout, with the Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee’s strategic forces subcommittee pointing to the potential delay. The situation was first reported by Space News.
