VANDENBERG SPACE FORCE BASE, Calif. – SpaceX new launch day will be on Wednesday, Jul. 19 at 9:09 p.m of the Falcon 9 booster carrying 15 Starlink satellites destined for low earth orbit.

Space x has aborted its launch just 5 seconds before liftoff on Tuesday, Jul. 18 at 10:25 p.m.

This will be the tenth flight for the Falcon 9 first-stage booster.

Upon separating with its cargo of satellites, the first stage booster will return to Earth to land on the Of Course I Still Love You drone ship waiting in the Pacific Ocean.

This Falcon 9 has previously launched the NROL-87, NROL-85, SARah-1, SWOT, Transporter-8, and four Starlink missions.

You can watch the launch by tuning in here five minutes prior to liftoff.
