Details about scrubbed missions should discussed in the mission threads.
Quote from: MTom on 01/06/2015 09:49 pmDetails about scrubbed missions should discussed in the mission threads. No! I'm tired of reading all the wailing about scrubs on the mission threads. IMO the mods should bulk-move any scrub-related complaining from mission threads over to this centralized thread, where those who care can discuss whether the latest boat in the keepout zone means that SpaceX is doomed doomed doomed or whatever.It will make the mission threads more pleasant for the rest of us.
... so please help me with any info you have...

But I'm not sure I'd move every single scrub related post here. This is something to discuss with the other mods, please don't worry it to death here, ok?
If you put the key at the top of the lists it might be more readable for people looking at the thread for the first time.

Because of how much press SpaceX gets, any scrub seems to be under more scrutiny. I then hear it from people that SpaceX is just not performing. To me the data will tell more of the story. What is also interesting is that it is hard to even sometimes define a delay etc. I had one person telling me on another board because a SpaceX mission was originally proposed to lift off in February but was re-scheduled to a later date in the year for (whatever reason) that means the mission was late.
