The launch, which was originally planned for Friday morning, was also scrubbed Saturday morning due to inclement weather.
Due to unfavorable weather, we are standing down from today's launch; the team will continue with the countdown until T-30 seconds for data collection. Another launch attempt is available tomorrow, January 24 with a 22-minute window opening at 10:00 a.m. EST

SpaceX recently launched another batch of Starlink satellites on Wednesday.
