SAEDNEWS: American aerospace company SpaceX has canceled the scheduled Monday launch of its Starship prototype rocket for its 10th test flight due to unfavorable weather conditions.
The launch was planned for 7:59 p.m. Eastern Time from the Starbase facility in Texas.
"Standing down from today’s flight test attempt due to weather. Starship team is determining the next best available opportunity to fly," SpaceX’s X social media page said.
This marks the second cancellation of a Starship launch in the past two days. The prototype’s launch on August 24 was called off due to a technical malfunction in ground systems. The company now hopes to attempt the launch again on August 26.
