After several delays, NASA and Northrop Grumman (NGC) are launching the ICON spacecraft this November. ICON will be delivered to orbit aboard NGC’s Pegasus XL rocket, which is launched from the air over the Atlantic Ocean. ICON’s mission is to “explore a zone in our atmosphere where Earth weather and space weather meet.” After a recent delay, a new launch window has yet to be announced.
