NASA is giving Orbital Sciences another chance to launch on Orbiting Carbon Observatory on a Taurus launch vehicle (otherwise known as a rocket). The first time didn't go too well. Before they do that, they're going to try to launch an instrument called Glory (to observe atmospheric aerosols) on a Taurus, too. Considering that the U.S. Government does not have millions to spare on re-tries, I hope they get the next two Taurus launches right.
