Technologue.id, Jakarta – About four hours before the target launch time, SpaceX, the space-rocket company, disclosed a message saying it was canceling the launch attempt Friday morning. Instead, the company scheduled a launch for Saturday morning.

As is well known, NASA and SpaceX are preparing to launch four more astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS), quoted by Digitaltrends. If the launch target on Saturday is missed, there is still a chance to back up Sunday at 3:04 a.m. ET (12:04 p.m. PT).

Regarding the reasons for this delay, SpaceX simply said that the changes provided “additional time to complete and discuss analysis”.

When the mission actually begins, the initial stages of the flight will be broadcast live using multiple cameras, with real-time audio from Mission Control and the crew capsule also part of the broadcast.

Just minutes after the capsule is lifted into space, viewers too can enjoy the incredible spectacle of the reusable first-stage booster and its return to Earth.

Usually the boosters land with an unmanned fleet off the coast of Florida. However this mission will land it in Landing Zone 1 near the launch site.
