Northrup Grumman launched their Antares/Cygnus without a hitch from Wallops Island, Virginia.
Elon Musk's "hold my beer" launch from the Cape scrubbed at T-2 for an unknown reason. Safe the rocket, next launch window at 9:39 PM EDT Saturday if they can fix whatever went wrong by then.
I am sure that Elon isn't happy about the last-second abort, because the Antares/Cygnus launch video had no on-board cameras and only a cheesy Kerbal Space Program animation of the rocket for most of the flight. SpaceX's on-board cameras and first stage booster landings make their launch videos sooooooo much more interesting.....
