MER-B 'Opportunity' Launch Postponed To No Earlier Than June 30
Kennedy Space Center
June 29, 2003

The launch of the "Opportunity" Mars Exploration Rover has
been postponed to no earlier than Monday evening (June 30).
The delay is due to problems with the cork insulation on the
Delta rocket's first stage.
