Falcon 9 rocket carrying the first 60 satellites for Elon Musk's new Starlink internet service was supposed to leave the earth on Wednesday but has been delayed due to excessive winds over the Florida launch site. The mission will take place again on Thursday at 10:30 pm from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, as informed by SpaceX. The launch aims at placing an initial stage of global internet network into low-Earth orbit.
