If I've got it right, it sounds like this one may go Friday night around 2045 ET and Falcon 9 GPS will go at 2143 ET
NG-14 is at 21:16 EDT, 27 minutes before GPS III SV04.

Yeah, I realized I read the NASA TV start time as the launch time. Oops.

Do we know if the old nasa pier will be closed to the public for the launch? Would love to catch this launch (safely distanced from anyone else watching of course), but would understand if they close it due to the current situation.
Anyone try watching from here tonight? I'd like to head down for tomorrow's attempt but would like to verify it's open before making the 7+ hour trek.

I read somewhere (but I can't find it now, but I thought it was here) that the "out of nominal" specs from last night was in the "OCCS", which I suppose is part of GSE. I did some googling, and found a couple mentions of OCCS here on NSF, but no details. I finally found a linked-in page where someone spelled it out and described it as "Orbital Commodity Control Systems" which controls propellant loading systems. If the problem was in OCCS, and if OCCS is indeed part of propellant loading, then I wonder why there would be a problem with it 2.5 minutes before T-0? All of the fueling was complete by then. They even said no top off was needed last night.
So, can anyone here tell us a little more about OCCS? And was the problem with OCCS last night? Finally, if OCCS is GSE, what does the "Orbital" mean? I'm wondering if it is a holdover from Obrital ATK.
