Will thick cloud layers, rainfall and thunderstorms further delay or scrub the upcoming 1:41 a.m. SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch attempt from NASA's Kennedy Space Center? Welcome to FLORIDA TODAY Space Team live coverage of today's early morning Starlink 6-83 mission — and SpaceX has already pushed back the liftoff time three times.

Tonight's launch was SpaceX's 54th Falcon 9 mission of 2025 and 56th liftoff so far this year. The other two missions involved Starship, SpaceX's next-generation super-heavy-lift rocket. The company is gearing up for another Starship test flight — the vehicle's ninth overall — in the coming weeks.

Hours before liftoff, the National Weather Service had issued flood advisories up until 8:45 p.m. Friday for portions of rain-socked North Brevard.
