SpaceX Plans Another Launch Tonight

Hawthorne-based SpaceX is getting set for yet another launch of one of its Falcon rockets, this time a satellite launch for EchoStar. According to SpaceX, it is targeting the launch of the EchoStar XXIII from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida tonight, at 1:34 a.m. EDT. The launch is the second from Kennedy Space Center. SpaceX said it does not intend to land this Falcon 9's first stage, due to mission requirements. The launch is the second from Launch Complex 39A, following a resupply mission to ISS last month.
