What day in 2007 and what exact Pacific Standard Time would the Atlas V 521 have launched the NROL-29 payload? Any ideas?
Doubt that the thingy even reached such an advanced stage of development......
I am sure that there's a better place for the post above.
What cancelled launch? All Atlases scheduled to be launched have launched.
Based on Jim's response, I had to look up what we assume NROL-29 was.
It is assumed that is was one of the two canceled FIA-O optical imaging satellites. (

Considering how over budget and behind schedule these birds where, it is doubtful that anything more than a 2007 placeholder that kept slipping to the right was used.
The good news is, NASA my someday launch the optics as a space telescope
