SpaceX may gain a Friday, May 28, 2010 launch window for sometime between 11 a.m. EDT and close at 3 p.m. EDT for the newly configured Falcon 9 booster test ultimately designed to provide re-supply and cargo to the International Space Station, according to a report from SpaceflightNow. The maiden flight of the Falcon 9 may be hailed as the dawn of the commercial space age if successful. It may also provide some political capital to advocates of the Obama space policy on Capitol Hill in Washington providing the flight objectives are met.
