A two-stage Falcon 9 rocket is scheduled to launch from Florida at 12:27 a.m. The Louisiana-based company Globalstar has a communication satellite.

If everything goes according to plan, the rocket's first stage will come back to Earth about nine minutes after liftoff, where it will be put down in the Atlantic. You can watch it live at Space.com or directly from the company. About 10 minutes before liftoff, coverage is expected to begin.

The most memorable missions from the company.

It will be the third mission for the space company. On Friday, June 17th, the company launched 53 of its Starlink internet satellites from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida and on Saturday, June 18th, it lofted a radar satellite for the German military.

A first stage that already had 12 launches under its belt was used in the Friday mission, setting a new rocket reuse record. The ninth launch for the first stage of the Falcon 9 will take place on Sunday.

The company's 26th liftoff will take place on Sunday, and the year isn't even half over.
