Not much of a surprise but yes, the SLS slips again. And, while NASA's other space programs appear to be highly successful, and SpaceX is raising the bar practically every month, the SLS boondoggle continues to burn money. I am close to believing that by the time SLS is ready for use, its capabilities will be met by SpaceX launch vehicles and at a dramatically lower cost, rendering it obsolete. SpaceX is simply iterating far, far faster.
Thoughts?

The rocket will now roll out of its Florida hangar no earlier than mid-February.
