NASA's flying saucer test flight, which was scheduled for June 2, has been delayed due to turbulent ocean conditions. If the waves are too high then it will become difficult for the recovery team to retrieve the craft and its data safely. Other conditions have to be perfect too: the launch team is eager to avoid high winds and stormy weather.
