Elon Musk will launch another 60 Starlink satellites into orbit this evening at around 9.18pm UK time.
Nasa's Kennedy Space Centre website has revealed a Falcon 9 rocket will blast off from Cape Canaveral in Florida, USA at 4.18pm local time.
The launch had originally been scheduled on Thursday evening but had to be pushed back due to weather conditions.
An update on the website says: "SpaceX is now targeting June 26, 2020 4:18 PM ET for the 10th launch of Starlink.
"SpaceX is scheduled to launch 60 Starlink satellites from a Falcon 9.
"This will be the 10th mission in support of the constellation of networked satellites known as Starlink.
"The goal of Starlink is to create a network that will help provide internet services to those who are not yet connected, and to provide reliable and affordable internet across the globe."
The controversial Space X project aims to beam low-cost Wi-Fi to remote areas by using thousands of satellites.
More than 420 probes have already been launched into space, and the network is eventually due to total 12,000.
During the launch, the unmanned Falcon 9 rocket will carry the satellites into orbit, before attempting to land at sea.
The brainchild of tech billionaire Elon Musk, Space X fires the probs into space in batches of 60 at a time.
Elon Musk hopes the satellites will bring low-cost internet to remote areas on Earth.
Starlink explained: “With performance that far surpasses that of traditional satellite internet, and a global network unbounded by ground infrastructure limitations, Starlink will deliver high speed broadband internet to locations where access has been unreliable, expensive, or completely unavailable.”
However, several astronomers have raised concerns that one of the satellites, which are solar-powered and usually orbit around 340 miles above Earth, could pass in front of a telescope and obscure an image.
In a recent study, published in arXiv, researchers led by Stefano Gallozzi, wrote: "Depending on their altitude and surface reflectivity, their contribution to the sky brightness is not negligible for professional ground based observations.
"With the huge amount of about 50,000 new artificial satellites for telecommunications planned to be launched in Medium and Low Earth Orbit, the mean density of artificial objects will be of >1 satellite for square sky degree; this will inevitably harm professional astronomical images."
If you want to track the satellites in real-time, you can visit the Find Starlink website, via a livestream on Space X's YouTube channel, or Nasa's TV website.
The site allows you to view the satellites’ location in real-time on a map, or input your location to see exactly when the satellites will be visible from your home.
Results are filtered based on how bright the satellites will be, so make sure you're looking at those listed as ‘Bright’.
