SpaceX Set to Launch Falcon 9 Rocket from Cape Canaveral
SpaceX is gearing up for another groundbreaking launch from Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. The aerospace company is set to launch a Falcon 9 rocket within a two-hour window from 3:11 p.m. to 5:11 p.m. EST. This mission will see the deployment of the Telkomsat HTS 113BT satellite into low-Earth orbit after ascending in an easterly trajectory from the Cape.
The first-stage booster of the Falcon 9 is expected to make a historic landing aboard SpaceX’s Just Read the Instructions drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean. Excitement is building as space enthusiasts eagerly anticipate this milestone.
