Update: Liftoff of the Falcon 9 occurred at 11:50 p.m., Monday, Jan. 9, from Pad 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, with a successful landing a short time later at Landing Zone 1. Read our full post-launch story here.

Weather conditions should be excellent for SpaceX's late Monday night launch from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, a mission that will include sonic booms generated by a local booster landing.

It will mark SpaceX's second mission for OneWeb, a competitor in the satellite internet industry. OneWeb was flying on Russian hardware before the war in Ukraine, after which it switched to SpaceX for launch services.

Liftoff from Pad 40 is expected at 11:50 p.m. ET. Weather during the window is predicted to be more than 90% favorable for an on-time launch attempt.

Those watching will see the rocket's 162-foot first stage touch down about eight minutes after liftoff. As usual, a sonic boom will be generated just before landing. Though startling, it is largely harmless.

Deployment of the 40 OneWeb satellites is expected to begin about an hour after liftoff.

Liftoff from Pad 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is slated for 11:50 p.m. A landing at the Cape's Landing Zone 1 is expected a short time later. Local spectators should expect sonic booms with the booster's return. This mission will send 40 internet-beaming satellites to similar orbits over the course of about an hour and a half following liftoff. Stay tuned as we provide updates throughout tonight's launch and landing attempts.
