A 19-story United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket is about to be fueled with super-cold propellants in preparation for at 5:12 p.m. liftoff from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
A poll of launch vehicle and spacecraft teams produced a "go" to begin the fueling process, and at 2:52 p.m. the launch countdown picked up at T minus two hours.
Fueling lines are being chilled before the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen begin flowing.
There is one more planned hold in the countdown, lasting 20 minutes, at T minus four minutes.
