ORLANDO, Fla. — Radar showed a green blob of rain covering Florida’s East Coast on Sunday that eventually delayed SpaceX’s latest launch attempt from the Space Coast until Monday.
A Falcon 9 carrying the Hispasat Amazonas Nexus satellite now will target liftoff from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station’s Space Launch Complex 40 during a four-hour window that opens at 5:32 p.m. Eastern time.
Space Launch Delta 45′s weather squadron’s forecast said the cold front that pushed through last week had migrated back toward the state, bringing storms over the region that violated constraints during Sunday’s window. The 24-hour delay, though, has a prediction of a 90% chance for good weather.
