A Central Coast rocket launch which was postponed last week due to Hurricane Hilary is now set to take place Monday night.
SpaceX is hoping to launch a Falcon 9 rocket with 21 small communications satellites on board.
It’s set for 11:04 p.m. from Vandenberg Space Force Base. If needed, there are backup windows at 11:54 p.m. Monday, and 2:26 a.m. Tuesday morning.
The launch was originally set for early last Thursday, but was postponed for a technical issue. It was moved to Friday, but then delayed again due to the hurricane. The rocket’s reusable booster lands on a barge in the Pacific Ocean. But, the landing spot would've been in the path of the coming hurricane.
