On 17 April at around 10:20 (EDT) or 07:20 (PDT), SpaceX aborted the countdown and cancelled the launch of the Starship spacecraft. A second attempt will be made two days later.
Here's What We Know
Five minutes before liftoff, Elon Musk wrote about a problem with a frozen valve. Specialists were unable to fix the fault promptly.
It was later learned that it would take up to 48 hours to fix the problem. SpaceX will once again attempt to send Starship into orbit on April 20. The launch window will open at 10:28 (EDT) or 07:28 (PDT) and the YouTube broadcast will begin at 09:45 (EDT) or 06:45 (PDT).
