Nov. 5 (UPI) -- One of two planned launches from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station lifted off Wednesday night.
SpaceX's mission went off as scheduled, but the United Launch Alliance flight scheduled for two hours later was scrubbed and delayed by at least 24 hours because of an issue involving a liquid oxygen tank's vent valve.
If both launches went off in the doubleheader, the yearly record of 93 from Florida will be tied. The other Space Coast site is the Kennedy Space Center. The skies in the area were clear with the full moon in the west, Florida Today reported.

SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 with 29 Starlink satellites at 8:31 p.m. EST with a window originally opened at 6:09 p.m. from Launch Complex 40. About eight minutes later, the fifth flight for the first-stage booster, including a Crew-11 flight and one Starlink mission, landed on the drone ship Just Read the Instructions on the Atlantic Ocean.
