Watch it if you are quick...

Bugga.  Launch aborted with less than 2 seconds to launch.

That's annoying.

But it seems they are reviewing the data and haven't ruled out a possible launch attempt later in the day - as long as it is still within their launch window....

A bit of a disappointment ... but then it's better to abort on the pad than in flight.

At least the launch vehicle and payload are intact and all they have lost is time.
