The launch comes days after SpaceX launched another batch of satellites from Cape Canaveral that created a “jellyfish” phenomena in the sky.

It also comes as news of the launch of the Starliner spacecraft, set to send astronauts into space, has been delayed again with no new launch date set.

NASA and Boeing on Tuesday scrubbed the planned Saturday afternoon launch from Florida’s Space Coast as engineers continue to investigate a helium leak in the spacecraft’s propulsion system.
