SpaceX to launch a Falcon 9 rocket; see details & Cape Canaveral launch schedule

X plans to launch a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral on a sourly coast-hugging route on Tuesday to deliver 88 tiny satellites into polar orbit. first st booster of Falcon 9 will return to Florida's Coast for first time since December, landing at Cape Canaveral. Here is more about Cape Canaveral launch schedule.

Cape Canaveral launch schedule 

As mentioned on official website of kennedycenter.com, here is X launch schedule

RTH ATLANTIS LAWN: 

• rth Atlantis Lawn opens at 1:00 PM with launch video feed. 

ATLANTIS SOUTH LOT: 

• Atlantis South Lot opens at 1:30 PM with launch video feed. 

A 58-minute launch window opens at 2:56 p.m. EDT (1856 GMT) Tuesday for Falcon 9 rocket to launch from Cape Canaveral's p 40. X postponed launch from last week to complete more pre-flight inspections, but corporation gave furr reason for postponement. Last Tuesday, X successfully tested a previously-flown Falcon 9 rocket in preparation for Transporter 2 small satellite ridesharing mission.

re's an 80% probability of good wear for launch on Tuesday at Cape Canaveral. Transporter 2 mission, according to X, will launch 88 tiny craft into orbit for clients all around world. Transporter 1, X's first dedicated rideshare mission, launched in January carrying 143 tiny satellites, setting a new record for number of different craft flown in a single flight.

Although Transporter 2 mission will t surpass that record, X claims that customer craft set to launch on Tuesday have a combined mass larger than previous rideshare mission. Small satellites for US military, as well as rar and optical Earth observation satellites for Satellogic and ICEYE, commercial remote sensing firms located in Argentina and Finland, are among paylos onboard Transporter 2. Several CubeSats for US and international operators are also on board flight.

Falcon 9 launch on Friday will be year's 20th, although all 19 flights in 2021 have targeted landings on drone ships in Atlantic Ocean. On company's final mission of year 2020, a launch for National Reconnaissance Office on Dec. 19, X's last rocket landed at Cape Canaveral Force Station.

This year, all but one of X's rocket landing attempts were successful. On missions transporting large goods into or flights hauling paylos to high-altitude orbits, X generally deploys Falcon 9 rockets on drone ships. On lesser paylo launches, rocket has eugh propellant reserve to turn around utilising a "boost-back" burn shortly after st separation. On Tuesday, when Transporter 2 is out, this will be case.
