Watch live coverage from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida as SpaceX launches a Falcon 9 rocket carrying NASA’s Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP). Liftoff from Launch Complex 39A is scheduled for 7:30 a.m. EDT (1130 UTC) on Wednesday, Sept. 24. The first-stage booster for this mission, B1096, making its second flight will land on SpaceX's drone ship 'Just Read the Instructions', stationed in the Atlantic Ocean, eight minutes 45 seconds after leaving the launch pad.
IMAP will use its 10 science instruments to study the boundary of the Sun’s heliosphere. Along for the ride are NASA’s Carruthers Geocorona Observatory, designed to observe the ultraviolet light from the Earth’s geocorona, and NOAA’s Space Weather Follow On Lagrange 1 (SWFO-L1), which will monitor the Sun for key space weather activity.
Our live coverage with commentary from Spaceflight Now's Will Robinson-Smith will start about one hour prior to launch.
