Weather No-go at the tanking decision
Astronaut · Who you talk to: The weather officer and the launch director
At the weather and tanking briefing, the forecast is outside the launch rules.
What this case adds
- Decide "No-go" to begin tanking and explain the constraint.
- Wait for the next decision point instead of loading propellant.
Critical fails
- Answering "Go" with an open problem in your system.
- Waiving a mandatory launch constraint after the terminal count has started: it cannot be waived.
- Holding more than 3 minutes between T-6 and T-1:30 and pressing on instead of recycling to T-10.
- Not knowing the abort or emergency procedure for your role.
