Live coverage: SpaceX launches Falcon Heavy rocket from Kennedy Space Center

A replay of the United Launch Alliance Delta 4 rocket launching the Air Force’s Wideband Global SATCOM communications satellite No. 7 from Cape Canaveral, Florida.

The Falcon 9 first stage booster assigned to launch as soon as March on SpaceX’s first mission with a previously-flown rocket has been test-fired at the company’s development facility in Central Texas.

An ambitious mission of exploration launched from Japan at 0422 GMT Wednesday (11:22 p.m. EST Tuesday). An H-2A rocket lifted off from the Tanegashima Space Center with Hayabusa 2, starting a six-year journey to collect rocks from an asteroid and return them to Earth.
