SpaceX is now planning to launch their fourth batch of Starlink satellites on a Falcon 9 rocket from SLC-40 on Wednesday, January 29, 2020 at 9:06 am. The launch has slipped from Tuesday due to poor weather in the recovery area.
Viewing Locations: As this is a midday launch, all of the usual places should be available for viewing. Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex will (as far as we know) be open, with the Apollo/Saturn V Center (Banana Creek) being accessible with the price of daily admission, but due to the time of this launch it will not be possible to get there prior to launch, and so KSCVC is not a recommended viewing location at this time. Due to the northeasterly vector of this launch, Playalinda Beach is recommended for viewing this launch, with the parks along U.S. 1 being a good backup option – Jetty Park and other points south will be less optimal for launch viewing, although still good places to be.

If you’re still in town from the IFA launch and have time to kill before Starlink, fear not; there’s still plenty to do! Double down on the space immersion with a visit to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, the Sands Space History Center, and/or the American Space Museum & Walk of Fame – tell ’em the Wayward Plane sent you!
