CAPE CANAVERAL SPACE FORCE STATION — Another day, another scrub for Amazon’s Project Kuiper launch as SpaceX stated the weather for its rocket booster recovery was a “no go”.
What You Need To Know
The next launch attempt will be Monday
This will be the maiden launch of this Falcon 9 rocket’s first-stage booster, called B1091

At the one minute, 25 second mark of SpaceX’s launch attempt of Amazon’s Project Kuiper launch on Sunday morning, the California-based company’s mission control stated that there was a “no-go condition on recovery” of its Falcon 9 first-stage rocket booster.
This means that while technically, the rocket could have launched the KF-02 mission, the weather conditions were not good out in the Atlantic Ocean for its first-stage booster B1091 to land on the droneship A Shortfall of Gravitas.
Because a hold on the launch was issued at the T-30 second mark, it means the takeoff attempt is scrubbed. It was supposed to launch at 9:13 a.m. ET.
The next launch attempt will be Monday at 8:35 a.m. ET.
When it does go up, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket will be leaving Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station with the KF-02 mission, stated the company.
This was the fourth time the launch has been scrubbed.
Attempting to launch
Between checkouts of the company's Falcon 9 rocket and the weather, SpaceX and Amazon has seen a bit of bad luck trying to launch the KF-02 mission.
The California-based company was set to launch the KF-02 mission on Thursday, but SpaceX posted on X, formerly Twitter, that it was standing down from the launch to perform additional inspections.
