BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) - Central Alabama could see some green to violet colors in the evening sky Saturday evening if NASA successfully launches a rocket from Wallop, Virginia.
The Suborbital Rocket Launch was originally set to happen last Friday on May 8th from NASAâs Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. Combination of cloud cover and windy conditions postponed the launch. The launch can only happen if the sky is clear, and winds remain light between the Mid-Atlantic coast and Bermuda. If one of these conditions are not met, the launch will be postponed to another day. Normally they have a one hour window set for the launch. Itâs possible that the launch could occur at any time between 7:10 PM and 8:10 PM CT.
