Here's what to know before the next Starlink launch, which is set for Wednesday afternoon from Cape Canaveral.

SpaceX will try again Wednesday to get off a Starlink launch from Cape Canaveral after scrubbing the launch on Monday.

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.
