SpaceX Pushes Off Satellite Launch

Hawthorne-based SpaceX says it is pushing off its planned launch of another, 60 Starlink satellites which were scheduled to launch on Monday. According to SpaceX, the launch--which was set to take off at 10:22AM EDT--was delayed due to weather. SpaceX did not announced a new target date for the launch. The launch will be at Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center. SpaceX already has more than 500 satellites in orbit around the earth that are currently part of Starlink. SpaceX said this particular Falcon 9 is the same first stage which supported launch of Crew Dragon's first flight to the International Space Station with NASA astronauts onboard and the ANASIS-II mission.
