Firefly has decided to stand down on today’s Alpha #FLTA005 launch to give the team more time to evaluate data and test systems from the first attempt. We will work closely with the range and our @NASA customer to determine the next launch window. Stay tuned for more. https://fireflyspace.com/missions/noise-of-summer/

Now targeting Thursday July 4 UTC (Wednesday July 3 PDT) per these cancel-and-replace NGA Hazardous Operations notice.

The hazard periods are the same, so presumably the same 04:03-04:33 UTC launch window.
