Live updates from Sunday afternoon’s SpaceX Starlink 6-77 unsuccessful Falcon 9 rocket launch try from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

SpaceX currently operates close to 6,500 Starlink satellites in orbit and has plans to loft thousands more. The satellites have been used to provide vital communications to hard-hit areas following natural disasters such as Hurricane Helene or in the wake of conflicts such as Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

SpaceX scrubbed its Starlink satellite mission from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on Sunday evening. The Falcon 9 rocket was scheduled to launch at 4:57 p.m., with backup windows available until 8:27 p.

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — An experiment created by a team of Community College of Allegheny County students is going to space. The experiment is set to launch Monday at 9:29 p.m. from Cape Canaveral on a SpaceX rocket heading to the International Space Station, the college said in a news release.

Being part of the Group 10 Starlink, the launch will travel in a northeast trajectory. If conditions are clear, those north of the Brevard area could get a good view of the rocket as it travels upward. Even in the daylight hours, a rocket stands out in the sky.

Cape Canaveral offers front row seats to the greatest show on Earth just about every week, but there are a few things to know before heading to the Sunshine State.
