"United Launch Alliance's Vulcan Rocket Primed for Inaugural Launch Amid Historic Moon Mission Buzz"

United Launch Alliance (ULA) has rolled out its first Vulcan rocket to the launch pad at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, marking a significant milestone after a decade of development. The 202-foot-tall rocket is scheduled for its inaugural flight on Monday at 2:18 am EST, carrying a commercial robotic Moon lander developed by Astrobotic. The Vulcan is set to replace ULA's Atlas and Delta rockets and has already secured over 70 missions before its first flight, including contracts with the US military and Amazon for its Project Kuiper broadband network. This launch is critical for ULA as it puts its record of 100 percent mission success on the line.
