[b]Delta IV Heavy to Launch NROL-91[/b] A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Delta IV Heavy rocket will perform the NROL-91 mission in service to the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) and the Space Force's Space Systems Command (SSC). Liftoff will occur from Space Launch Complex-6 at Vandenberg Space Force Base, California. Launch is scheduled for Sept. 24, 2022 at 2:53 p.m. PDT (5:53 p.m. EDT; 2153 UTC). The NROL-91 mission marks ULA's 32nd launch in partnership with the NRO, beginning with ULA's very first launch in 2006. NROL-91 will be the NRO's 10th launch aboard ULA's Delta IV Heavy rocket, which is the nation's proven heavy lifter, delivering high-priority missions for the U.S. Space Force, National Reconnaissance Office and NASA. This mission marks the fifth Delta IV Heavy launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base, and 95th and final launch of a Delta rocket from Vandenberg as ULA transitions its future missions from the West Coast to the new Vulcan Centaur rocket.
