Spaceport America has reviewed the roads and the weather conditions.  They are estimating that it may be 12:00n today before the roads can be opened to proceed to the VLA.  The road conditions are fully saturated and the muddy conditions will take some time to dry out.  Even 4-wheel drive vehicles are having challenges.

 

The HLA has limited restroom facilities.  If your team wishes to temporarily return to Las Cruces or Truth or Consequences, we will do our best to keep everyone updated on progress.

 

We appreciate everyone's patience.  The New Mexico monsoon season has arrived several weeks early.  This is a very rare occurrence for southern New Mexico.
