Liftoff winds were forecast to be between 19 and 26 miles per hour.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStrong onshore flow will continue through the weekend as the high pressure across the eastern U.S. will persist. Moisture will be slow to return, but some isolated onshore-moving showers are possible by the backup day,\u201d meteorologists said. \u201cThe primary concern remains Liftoff Winds with the addition of the Cumulus Cloud Rule for Saturday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If SpaceX decides to push to Saturday, the chance of favorable weather increases to 60 percent. Both launch dates show the booster recovery weather as somewhere between low and moderate risk.<\/p>\n<p>A little more than eight minutes after liftoff, the first stage booster will target a touchdown on the SpaceX droneship, \u2018Just Read the Instructions.\u2019 If all goes well, this will be the 94th successful booster landing using JRTI and the 355th booster landing to date.<\/p>\n<p>This launch of Starlink satellites will also bring the total number of orbital launches from Florida this year to 71, one shy from tying the total launched in 2023.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/spaceflightnow.com\/2024\/10\/17\/live-coverage-spacex-to-launch-starlink-satellites-on-falcon-9-rocket-from-cape-canaveral-3\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Falcon 9 stands ready for a Starlink mission at Cape Canaveral\u2019s pad 40.
