SUMMARY:CHINA'S LONG MARCH 5 (LM-5)RETURN TO FLIGHT\, Dec 27\, 2019\, Hainan Island\, China\, between 7:27-11:45 am ET
DESCRIPTION:Update\, December 24: Andrew Jones tweets that the airspace closure for the launch is between 7:27 am ET and 11:45 am ET. \n\nBelow are the airspace closure notifications for China’s crucial Long March 5 launch. These put the launch between 12:27 – 16:45 UTC/7:27 – 11:45 a.m. Eastern Dec. 27. https://t.co/SgsSRVOLCS \n— Andrew Jones (@AJ_FI) December 24\, 2019 \n \nOriginal Entry: Media sources are reporting that China plans to launch its Long March 5 rocket on December 27\, 2019 from its launch site on Hainan Island.  The time has not been announced\,but China is 12 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time so it could be December 26 EST. \n\nThe third Long March 5\, China’s largest rocket\, has been rolled out to the pad at Wenchang. Launch set for the 27th. This launch has to go well for China to carry out its planned Mars mission & lunar sample return next year.
