KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - Railroad cars sit on a track that runs past the launch pad on Complex 41 (background) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Waiting on the pad for launch is the Atlas V/New Horizons spacecraft, surrounded by four lightning masts. Two scheduled launch attempts were scrubbed Jan. 17 and Jan. 18 due to weather conditions: high surface winds in Florida the first day and a storm-related power outage at the spacecraft mission operations center in Maryland on the second day. A third launch attempt has been scheduled for Jan. 19.
