SpaceX postponed the Falcon 9 launch of Amazon’s KF-02 satellite mission scheduled for Sunday because of adverse weather conditions, the company announced.
The launch window has been rescheduled to open at 8:35 a.m. US Eastern Time (12:35 GMT) on Monday, 11 August, from Cape Canaveral Space Launch Complex 40 in Florida.
SpaceX confirmed the rocket and payload remain in good condition. The delay was prompted by unfavourable weather for booster recovery.
This mission marks the first flight for the Falcon 9’s first-stage booster supporting KF-02. Following stage separation, the booster will attempt to land on SpaceX’s “A Shortfall of Gravitas” droneship in the Atlantic Ocean.
KF-02 will deploy 24 satellites for Amazon’s Project Kuiper constellation, which aims to provide global broadband access via more than 3,200 low Earth orbit satellites.
