NASA Wallops Rocket Launch Now Set For Tuesday Night - CBS Boston

BOSTON (CBS) – NASA hopes to finally launch the KiNET-X sounding rocket from its Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia Tuesday at 8:05 p.m.

To study this, the rocket will release a barium vapor about 9-10 minutes into the flight, just north of Bermuda at an altitude of over 200 miles.

However, the trailing rocket will be visible to some on the East Coast before the vapor is released.
