FLORIDA TODAY Staff
NASA's Morpheus lander will attempt another test flight today at NASA's Kennedy Space Center.
This time the goal is a 98-second flight climbing about 803 feet and flying downrange 1,333 feet, with a pre-planned maneuver to change its trajectory.
The test is scheduled for about 3 p.m.
The four-legged vehicle, a Johnson Space Center-led technology development project, has had a string of successful test flights.
