Ares I-X Prelaunch Events and Countdown Details
"T-35 seconds- Flight control system transfers from alignment to navigation mode
Inertial and navigation data are verified for accuracy
Auxiliary power unit start sequence is initiated
T-21 seconds- Reusable solid rocket motor thrust vector control gimbal test performed by rocking and tilting each axis approximately 1.5 degrees
T-16 seconds- Ground control station issues commands for sound suppression, opening the valves to flood the mobile launch platform with water (At its peak, water will flow at a rate of 900,000 gallons per minute.)
T-0, liftoff- Reusable solid rocket motors ignite, and hold-down bolts fire "

5 a.m. - Ares I-X Launch Commentary Coverage Begins
Launch scheduled for 8 a.m. - KSC
TBD - Ares I-X Post-launch News Conference - KSC
The Ares 1-X is currently targeted for launch on Oct. 27, however assessments are being made to determine if the launch will be delayed because of an earlier nitrogen gas leak in an accumulator located in the aft skirt of the rocket.

Mission: Ares I-X Flight Test
Launch Vehicle: Ares I-X
Launch Site: Kennedy Space Center - Launch Pad 39B
Launch Window: 8 a.m. - 12 p.m. EDT
Description: The Ares I-X flight test is NASA's first test for the Agency's new Constellation launch vehicle -- Ares I. The Ares I-X flight will provide NASA with an early opportunity to test and prove flight characteristics, hardware, facilities and ground operations associated with the Ares I.
COSMOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS FROM GRAVITATIONAL LENS TIME DELAYS
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope TD measurements for ~4000 lenses should constrain the local Hubble constant h to ~0.007 (~1%), Ω de to ~0.005, and w to ~0.026 (all 1σ precisions).

Launch scheduled for 8 a.m. - KSC
TBD - Ares I-X Post-launch News Conference - KSC
The Ares 1-X is currently targeted for launch on Oct. 27, however assessments are being made to determine if the launch will be delayed because of an earlier nitrogen gas leak in an accumulator located in the aft skirt of the rocket.

Mission: Ares I-X Flight Test
Launch Vehicle: Ares I-X
Launch Site: Kennedy Space Center - Launch Pad 39B
Launch Window: 8 a.m. - 12 p.m. EDT
Description: The Ares I-X flight test is NASA's first test for the Agency's new Constellation launch vehicle -- Ares I. The Ares I-X flight will provide NASA with an early opportunity to test and prove flight characteristics, hardware, facilities and ground operations associated with the Ares I.

"T-35 seconds- Flight control system transfers from alignment to navigation mode
Inertial and navigation data are verified for accuracy
Auxiliary power unit start sequence is initiated
T-21 seconds- Reusable solid rocket motor thrust vector control gimbal test performed by rocking and tilting each axis approximately 1.5 degrees
T-16 seconds- Ground control station issues commands for sound suppression, opening the valves to flood the mobile launch platform with water (At its peak, water will flow at a rate of 900,000 gallons per minute.)
T-0, liftoff- Reusable solid rocket motors ignite, and hold-down bolts fire "

COSMOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS FROM GRAVITATIONAL LENS TIME DELAYS
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope TD measurements for ~4000 lenses should constrain the local Hubble constant h to ~0.007 (~1%), Ω de to ~0.005, and w to ~0.026 (all 1σ precisions).
