SpaceX's Nusantara Lima Mission Delayed for Third Consecutive Night Due to Weather Conditions
SPACE ECONOMY
The launch of SpaceX's Nusantara Lima mission has been postponed for a third consecutive night due to adverse weather conditions at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Persistent rainfall and towering clouds led to cancellations earlier this week.
While SpaceX aimed for an 8 PM launch, forecasts indicated only a 30% chance of favorable conditions at the start of the window, improving slightly to 45% later on. Meteorological threats included cumulus clouds, anvil clouds, and surface electric fields, ultimately leading to the decision to scrub the launch.
