Default Lucy In The Sky With Atlas, maybe.

Classic Beatles song...not so classic NASA/ULA issue.

The Atlas V booster that was slated to carry Starliner into orbit has now been repurposed to launch Lucy. Her original assigned booster had an RD-180 hydraulic system issue. Evidently, NASA/ULA have been binge watching Wife Swappers or whatever that show is called.
