SpaceX Scrubs Starlink Mission for Third Time Due to Poor Weather Conditions

SpaceX has had to scrub the Starlink mission for the third time this week due to poor weather conditions. The next available launch opportunity is scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 7, at 5:17 p.m. PST.

The mission was announced after strong ground winds forced SpaceX and NASA to stand down from attempting to launch NASA’s PACE mission from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
