On the heels of an impactful few days of launches from SpaceX, this week shapes up to be less busy, but with a more international set of flights. SpaceX is a space company based in Hawthorne, and its products and services include Falcon.

SpaceX does have two flights scheduled from California, but South Korea and China also plan launches this week. The launch week ends with a Falcon 9 Starlink launch from California, with the Tranche 1 Transport Layer A flight also moving into this week following a launch delay.

The launch from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) was halted just after T-1:00 minute, when the vehicle entered startup. South Korea is planning to launch its KSLV-2 rocket from a site on the country’s southern coast, while China is planning to launch a Chang Zheng 12 from Hainan Island.
