SpaceX will not launch a Falcon 9 rocket from Kennedy Space Center as planned this week, pushing the Space Coast’s next mission slated to fly with 60 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit, according to News 6 partner Florida Today.

Teams were targeting Thursday afternoon for liftoff from pad 39A, but had to delay the mission due to unspecified reasons. SpaceX has not announced a new date, though the push is expected to run at least a few days.

Either way, the mission's liftoff time should fall in the afternoon. This will mark the seventh flight for SpaceX's Starlink internet constellation, which will boost the network's size to more than 400 in Earth orbit.
