ULA set to launch Delta IV Heavy rocket from Space Coast


The United Launch Alliance is counting down to the final launch of its Delta IV Heavy rocket.

Tuesday’s liftoff is scheduled for 12:53 p.m. from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

ULA scrubbed the launch two weeks ago because of an issue with a pipe.

The rocket will help carry out the NROL-70 mission for the National Reconnaissance Office.
