A Look Into the Future

Here is a quote from  a spokesperson for SpaceX the private company who is launching a private mission to the Intl. Space Station:

""In preparation for the upcoming launch, SpaceX continues to conduct extensive testing and analysis," SpaceX spokesperson Kirstin Grantham said in an email statement. "We believe that there are a few areas that will benefit from additional work and will optimize the safety and success of this mission."
A new launch date for the mission has not yet been announced, but SpaceX officials said the company is working with NASA to determine the best time for the test flight."
Get used to corporate "Spin"  regarding our space program as the private sector takes on a larger role.  My gosh I'm cynical.
