Were back in the race, as the SpaceX rocket lifted through clouds above Kennedy Space Center. Saturday's launch was the first of NASA astronauts from Florida since 2011, when the space shuttle program ended, and the first by a private company. Many spectators had been there just days earlier on Wednesday for the first launch attempt, which was scrubbed due to the weather. At Space View Park in Titusville, few spectators wore masks and there wasn't much social distancing. Now look at all the people who are here seeing astronauts leave from U.S. soil.___Follow Mike Schneider on Twitter: @MikeSchneiderAP

For the spectators gathered along the Space Coast on Wednesday for an astronaut launch, the rumbling thunder and darkening clouds were more worrisome than any pandemic.

(CNN) - SpaceX wants to become one of the world's largest internet providers by deploying a constellation of thousands of satellites to beam broadband from space. One key benefit of reaching those areas: satellite internet access wouldn't be wiped out by bad weather. And SpaceX has faced pushback from potential competitors in the satellite internet business, including Softbank-backed OneWeb. Creating a successful satellite internet business could be extremely lucrative. OneWeb, which is backed by Softbank, and Amazon have their own plans to build megaconstellations of internet satellites, though SpaceX is considered the frontrunner to become the first to market.

People watch as the SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket lifts off from launch pad 39A at NASAs Kennedy Space Center on April 11, 2019, in Titusville, Florida. SpaceX just shared some footage from a successful attempt to recapture part of a rocket's nose cone after it plunged into the ocean. "Friction heats up particles in the atmosphere, which appear bright blue in the video," SpaceX said in a tweet that included the video. The fairing rests on the top of the rocket, and it acts as a shield for satellites that SpaceX launches for its customers. After most rocket launches, the fairing halves are left to plummet back to Earth, where the ocean becomes their graveyard.
