Admittedly, I’m not up to date on how the preparation is going, but a Space News article from last month claims they’re still looking good for the launch window. Blue may have hoped that ESCAPADE wouldn’t be the very first launch, but that ship has sailed. Wouldn’t count them out just yet, not until some critical failure lifts its ugly head. But for my money, the most likely, and most disappointing, outcome is that they scrub due to technical problems and end up missing the window. First launches rarely go off without a hitch. Still gonna be rooting for them and watching whatever stream is available.
