Falcon 9 returns to flight after the upper stage failure on Starlink 9-3. The cause was found to be a crack in a sense line for a pressure sensor attached to the vehicle’s oxygen system.

Starlink Group 10-9 launch out of LC-39A in Florida currently scheduled for 2024-07-27 05:45 UTC, or 2024-07-27 01:45 local time (EDT). Booster 1069-17 to land on Just Read the Instructions.
