July 16, 1969: Launch of Apollo 11

A communications satellite developed in a public-private partnership between Luxembourg government and SES is set for launch Tuesday aboard a previously-flown SpaceX Falcon 9 booster from Cape Canaveral, ready for a 15-year mission beaming encrypted, jam-resistant signals for security and military forces across Europe, Africa and the Middle East.

Watch a replay of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket lifting off from Cape Canaveral’s Complex 40 launch pad Friday, as seen from the Kennedy Space Center press site five miles away.

For the second consecutive day, SpaceX called off a Falcon 9 launch attempt at Cape Canaveral on Thursday evening, this time to complete a software update on the first 60 satellites for the company’s Starlink network to provide high-speed Internet service from orbit.
