High School Students In Lakewood Wait Once Again For SpaceX Rocket To Launch

LAKEWOOD, Colo. (CBS4) - Students in the Principles of Engineering class for Warren Tech students at Lakewood High School will have to wait one more day to see their hard work launched into space.

SpaceX will try once again to launch its rocket from Cape Canaveral on Tuesday. With less than three minutes to go, Monday's launch was canceled because of bad weather.
