Quote from: deruch on 10/31/2014 03:47 am Why did the thread title get changed (to Re: SpaceX LAS Pad Abort Test - 2015)? I haven't seen any new/recent updates or releases stating that the Pad Abort was slipping into 2015.



Crap. Sorry, that was me. Yeah, it's not official, but we strongly believe CRS-5 to finish the year. Everything else next year.



With CRS-5 scheduled to launch in December, I thought that the Pad Abort Test had plenty of time to set up and be done. There was more than a two month gap between launches, which should have been sufficient time for executing the test (unless something happened that we, the adoring general public was not privy to).Is there anything you can share about the slip of the test? Was there something wrong with the test article? We still have ALL of November, ya know...(Feel free to moderate all over this if I am straying too far into L2 territory!)
