    The countdown for the launch of a Titan 4/Centaur with the
    Milstar 5 payload is continuing at Cape Canaveral.

    The launch is now scheduled for 7:30PM EST.
    
    The deployment of the Milstar into near-geosync orbit will
    take place about 7 hours after launch.  After payload separation,
    the Centaur should vent its excess fuel and oxidizer.  This could
    create a "comet" about 22000 miles over the equator near longitude
    95 west.
