SpaceX Planning Two Weekend Launches

SpaceX is gearing up for another double-header launch weekend from Cape Canaveral, aiming to replicate their recent back-to-back launch success. With two rocket launches planned within 24 hours, the Space Coast is set to witness its 32nd launch of the year. Saturday’s launch from the Kennedy Space Center will deploy Galileo satellites for the European Space Agency, enhancing global navigation services. The launch window opens tomorrow at 8:34PM and closes at 9:11PM. The first stage rocket was last launched on March 24th, and has seen 19 successful launches and landings so far. This time, it will come down in the Atlantic Ocean, and there will be no recovery attempt. On Sunday, SpaceX will add to its Starlink satellite constellation with another Falcon 9 launch from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Sunday’s launch window opens at 5:50PM and closes at 9:50PM. The first stage will return for a landing on a drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
