Elon Musk’s SpaceX has called off the launch of Jupiter-3, world’s largest private satellite. In a post from its official Twitter handle, SpaceX said that the team will attempt the liftoff tomorrow. Though the reason has not be detailed as yet, the space watchers say that Florida’s unpredictable weather may have played a spoilsport. In case SpaceX sees a successful launch tomorrow, Jupiter 3 will be able to provide internet services to people in North and South America.

The launch will happen from Launch Complex-39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. SpaceX is looking for a successful launch as it confirmed that payload and vehicle are in good health. The rocket that will carry Jupiter 3, known as the Falcon Heavy, used to have the highest capacity to carry stuff into space compared to all other rockets in operation. But then NASA’s Artemis 1 mission with the Space Launch System (SLS) came along and beat its record. 

However, SpaceX’s Starship rocket system, which they are still working on, is expected to be even more powerful than the Falcon Heavy and SLS. It is said that the new satellite, Jupiter 3 has advanced features that has the capability of 500 GBps. The architecture of the satellite consists of miniaturisation of electronics, solid-state amplifiers and more efficient antenna designs, according to Maxar, the company that built the satellite. 

The customers of America and Latin America will be able to experience broadband with speeds as high as 100 Mbps, according to Hughes.
