[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]SpaceX is set to launch a Falcon 9 rocket today from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The payload is part of a joint venture between SES, the European satellite giant, and the government of Luxembourg, known as GovSat.
The satellite will control NATO surveillance drones, among other top secret projects.
The rocket being used also launched a spy satellite for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office in May 2017. SpaceX will not attempt land the booster today.
The window for launch is set for 4:25 p.m. EST. The SpaceX livestream is embedded below.[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScYUA51-POQ” video_title=”1″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
