Look up, Florida.

SpaceX teams in the Sunshine State are on track to launch a Falcon 9 rocket with another batch of the company's Starlink internet satellites on Friday night.

Liftoff of the 230-foot rocket from Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is slated for 6:39 p.m. EDT, with the launch window last until 10:15 p.m.

If liftoff goes as planned it will mark the Space Coast's 52nd launch this year.

Live Space Team launch coverage updates will be posted here at Florida Today, part of the USA TODAY Network, starting 90 minutes before the launch window opens.

SpaceX's broadcast will be hosted on X about five minutes before liftoff, and the viewing will be posted at the top of this page.

What's the weather forecast for today's SpaceX rocket launch?

Weather conditions for the Starlink 6-19 mission, according to the Space Force's Space Launch Delta 45, are expected to be poor. Forecasters last projected a 40% chance of "go" conditions through the launch window.

Besides a primary concern of clouds and rain associated with thunderstorms, forecasters also listed the threat of lightning as a concern.

Recovery conditions for a booster landing aboard a drone ship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean near the Bahamas were listed as "low risk."
