The AMOS-17 communications satellite should already be in space. The fact that it’s not is the result of a rare combination of technical hitches and bad weather, but that isn’t going to stop SpaceX from trying yet again tonight.
The launch is currently scheduled for 6:53 p.m. EDT, and as usual SpaceX will be providing a live stream of the event beginning roughly 15 minutes before the launch window opens. The launch window will be open just under an hour and a half, closing at 8:21 p.m.
