Original: SpaceX aborts launch for SDA's fourth Tranche 1 data transport mission, to make another attempt Tuesday
SpaceX halted the launch of the Space Development Agency's fourth Tranche 1 data transport satellite mission and will try again on Tuesday. The mission is part of the US military's effort to build a proliferated constellation of small satellites in low Earth orbit for high-speed data relay. A new launch window has been set for the following day, pending resolution of the issue that forced the abort.
Why now: The launch abort is fresh news as SpaceX prepares a new attempt on Tuesday.
