Ares I-X has completed the first leg of its upcoming mission.
NASA's newest rocket -- currently the largest in the world -- emerged from the Vehicle Assembly Building at 1:39 a.m. EDT Oct. 20, 2009, beginning a 7.5-hour trek through the predawn darkness to Launch Pad 39B at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

the needle is currently on the pad at Canaveral with a 4 hour launch window.
8:29 is the scheduled go time
hope for a successful test
-- there wasn't a lot of money alloted to this project.
