According to SpaceX officials, the launch will send 28 Starlink satellites into orbit from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

SpaceX is set to launch 28 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit on Monday, March 31. The Falcon 9 rocket will lift off from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

SpaceX is targeting a Friday night launch for the Thuraya 4 mission from Cape Canaveral.

Maxar 2 is the second of three missions with Maxar to deliver their six WorldView Legion satellites to orbit.

Large area of moisture across the entire State of Florida (and South Georgia) is going to be hanging around and with it, the possibility of lightning. Not a good combination for a rocket launch.

Highs will sit in the mid to low 80s with partly sunny skies and a 20%-30% chance for showers. Right now the launch is a go and will take off at 7:27 p.m. You can catch the launch live on Channel 4. By Sunday evening a cold front will move in from the northwest leaving us with cooler air come Monday morning. Monday morning those across SE GA could see lows in the upper 40s and low 50s across NE FL. Thanks to the passing cold front we will keep the fall-like weather with daily highs in the upper 60s low 70s and lows in the mid to low 50s through the next week.

NASA and SpaceX will have to thread the needle to launch the SpaceX Crew-1 Sunday evening. The SpaceX launch that was supposed to take place Saturday evening was pushed back 24 hours due to strong onshore winds. The mission, called Crew-1, will launch aboard a Crew Dragon spacecraft on an 8.5-hour trip to the International Space Station. It will be the first fully-crewed SpaceX launch since the inaugural May 2020 SpaceX demonstration mission that sent astronauts Douglas Hurley and Robert Behnken to the International Space Station aboard a Crew Dragon capsule. NASA selected Boeing and SpaceX in September 2014 to transport crew to the International Space Station from the United States.

The two NASA astronauts who will climb into the Demo-2 capsule atop the SpaceX Dragon rocket for Wednesday’s historic mission are launch veterans: Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley. They will lift off from the same launchpad at the Kennedy Space Center that hoisted the crew of Apollo 11 to the moon. Behnken was an experienced Air Force test pilot when he was first selected by NASA to join the astronaut corps in 2000. He last visited space on a shuttle mission in 2010. SPECIAL SECTION: Launch AmericaThis, by the way, is the first time Behnken and Hurley have flown together.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Boeing’s new Starliner capsule ended up in the wrong orbit after lifting off on its first test flight Friday, a blow to the company’s effort to launch astronauts for NASA next year. Floridians sent in photos of what they witnessed on Friday morning.
