SpaceX is targeting Wednesday, October 22 for Falcon 9’s launch of the SpainSat NG II mission to a geosynchronous transfer orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The four-hour window opens at 9:30 p.m. ET. If needed, a backup opportunity is available on Thursday, October 23 at the same time
Due to the additional performance required to deliver this payload to orbit, this will be the 22nd and final flight for the Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched CRS-26, OneWeb Launch 16, Intelsat IS-40e, SES O3b mPOWER-C, Ovzon-3, Eutelsat 26D, Turksat 6A, Maxar 2, SXM-9, and 12 Starlink missions

@RocketLab Neutron’s launch site is taking shape. While we’re gearing up for the next Electron launch from NASA Wallops Flight Facility in the coming days, here’s what the Neutron team have been up to on the new pad right next door.
Neutron's water tower has arrived at LC-3! The 283 ft / 86 m tall tower has a 200,000-gallon capacity to feed Neutron’s deluge system which protects the pad from the intense heat and vibration from the Archimedes engines on lift-off.
Concrete is flowing fast on the launch mount, a dedicated new pad for Neutron designed to enable rapid turnaround between missions.
Just a 5-minute drive from the pad, the Neutron Integration Facility is under construction. It’s from this facility that completed Neutron rockets will roll out to the pad before taking to the skies

@rfa_space On Monday evening, RFA conducted a hot fire of its first stage at their launch site at SaxaVord Spaceport. This resulted in an anomaly that led to the loss of the stage. No one was injured in the process. The launch pad has been saved and is secured, the situation is under control, and any immediate danger has been mitigated. We are now working closely with SaxaVord Spaceport and the authorities to gather data and info to eventually resolve what happened. We will take our time to analyze and assess the situation. We develop iteratively with an emphasis on real testing. This is part of our philosophy and we were aware of the higher risks attached to this approach. Our goal is to return to regular operations as soon as possible. We will keep you updated on our channels. Until then we kindly ask for your patience
