April 28 (UPI) -- SpaceX launched one rocket from Florida's Space Coast on Friday but not a second.
During the countdown for the second launch of the day, an abort order was given at 59 seconds until launch, and a 15-minute hold was put in place. Moments later, though, SpaceX said that ended the day's attempt to launch from NASA's Kennedy Space Center.
Another launch attempt will come Saturday.
Earlier in the day, SpaceX had successfully launched two satellites for telecom company SES, sending them into orbit Friday evening from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
According to SpaceX, the first stage booster on the SES 03b mPOWER mission for telecom company SES landed "on the Just Read the Instructions drone ship" in the Atlantic Ocean.
The Falcon 9 upper stage carried the 03b mPOWER 3 and 4 telecom communication satellites into orbit.
The second planned launch of the day was for a mission that had been delayed by severe weather in the area the day before.
That ViaSat-3 Americas mission was rescheduled to lift off during a 57-minute launch window that started at 7:29 p.m. eastern Friday.
Friday's SpaceX activity comes not long after the company's Starship launch on April 20 ended in an explosion when the second stage failed to separate the booster from the rocket.
