The coronavirus pandemic has derailed a lot of plans and affected just about every industry you can imagine, but SpaceX has done a remarkably stellar job of staying on schedule with its various launch dates. Today marks the fourth time the company will send a batch of Starlink satellites into orbit, and you can watch it live right here.
The launch, which is currently scheduled for 3:37 p.m. EDT will take place from Florida’s Cape Canaveral. As has been typical of many Starlink launches, there will be 60 of the tiny satellites aboard the SpaceX Falcon 9 when it heads skyward. That’s a whole bunch of satellites, and many astronomers aren’t particularly crazy about it.
