"UPDATE for 6:38 am ET: (The webcasts for today's launch try have ended). SpaceX aborted the planned launch of its Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft today due to an actuator issue on the rocket's second stage, forcing the company to stand down until at least Friday, Jan. 9, for the next launch try. The abort occured with just minutes remaining in the launch countdown, with the Dragon spacecraft already on internal power awaiting liftoff. SpaceX will review the second stage booster issue. If a launch attempt on Friday is possible, liftoff will occur at 5:09 a.m. EST (1009 GMT), NASA officials said."
