A rocket launch will have people seeing a fiery streak in the sky Saturday from north Georgia to southern Maine, according to NASA.
Liftoff is scheduled between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility on the Virginia coast. Sunset is at 6:05 p.m., suggesting the 59-foot Electron rocket could be launched in the dark.
“From a distance, Electron will appear like a bright, fast-moving star climbing upward through the night sky,” NASA said during the rocket’s first launch earlier this year.
