After a last-minute scrub, the Arianespace Vega rocket may attempt to send 12 satellites into orbit tonight.
Tonight (October 7) on its first flight of the year, a Vega rocket may put 12 satellites into orbit. You can watch the launch live online.
At 9:36 p.m. EDT (0:136 GMT on October 8), the Vega, which is run by the French company Arianespace, is slated to launch from Kourou Spaceport in French Guiana. The mission’s Oct. 6 launch attempt was aborted when a “red status” interrupted the countdown in the final minute because a measurement on the Vega rocket was “slightly above its maximum threshold,” according to a statement from Arianespace authorities.
“Additional checking is being conducted to confirm a new launch attempt on Saturday, October 7 at 10.36 p.m. (local time in Kourou: 01.36 a.m. on October 8 UTC),” said officials. If the Vega launch goes ahead, you may watch it live tonight here on Space.com thanks to Arianespace or directly through the firm.
