I'm really hoping they stream it tomorrow. I mean, even ULA streams their launches.
I'm not aware of any "troubles after refueling a number of times" on the shuttle. Could you elaborate please?What about problems the shuttle had after refueling a number of times. Do you really think they with attempt tomorrow?
OG2 Mission 1 Update: June 21, 2014
Today's OG2 Mission 1 launch attempt has been scrubbed due to weather concerns. Both Falcon 9 and the ORBCOMM satellites are safe. We are targeting launch for tomorrow, Sunday, June 22 at 5:30 pm ET. We will continue to post updates as we get closer to launch.

There was a policy of not conducting three attempts in a row so as to give the Launch Team a chance to rest, especially if the counts were in the late hours. Once a scrub had been declared, a scrub/securing team would take over from the Launch Tema. Normally this would have not have been and issue due to the need to service the PRSD commodities, either LH2 or LOX. This was normally a 48hr scrub turnaround, longer if both the LH2 and LOX needed to be topped off.

OG2 Mission 1 Update: June 23, 2014
SpaceX is taking a closer look at a potential issue identified while conducting pre-flight checkouts during yesterday's countdown. SpaceX will stand down Tuesday, June 24 while our engineering teams evaluate further, which will also allow the Range to move forward with previously scheduled maintenance. We are currently targeting the first week of July and will work with the Range to confirm the next available launch opportunities.
This launch is jinxed. Reminds me of how painful it was trying to watch STS-127 get off the ground.
In the mean time, when Hitler finds out SpaceX stops all launch webcasts..... :rofl:
