BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. – Prepare for a spectacular nighttime launch as the United Launch Alliance’s Atlas V rocket is poised to soar from Florida’s Space Coast on Thursday, carrying out a satellite mission.

The mission, dubbed Viasat-3 Flight 2, is a collaboration with Viasat, a renowned global technology firm. The launch window is set between 10:04 p.m. and 10:48 p.m. on Thursday, as confirmed by ULA.

Originally slated for Wednesday, November 5, the liftoff was initially postponed by a day and subsequently rescheduled to this week.

Upon successful launch, this mission is anticipated to significantly increase Viasat’s satellite bandwidth, more than doubling the current capacity of their fleet, ULA reports.
