                    NASA'S DART LAUNCH POSTPONED
                        NASA Media Advisory

The launch of NASA's DART spacecraft aboard an Orbital Sciences
Pegasus XL scheduled for Tuesday* is postponed.

A review of projected loads data, or the G-forces the payload
experiences upon ignition of the Pegasus second stage, is being
re-evaluated to ensure mission success.

A new launch date is under review and will be announced as soon as
determined.
