The launches will mark a busy start to the week for the company, which is targeting two launches in less than 24 hours.

The first launch, scheduled for Monday at 10:45 a.m. ET, will see a Falcon 9 rocket carrying a batch of Starlink satellites into orbit.

The second launch, set for Monday at 11:51 p.m. ET, will see a Falcon Heavy rocket carrying a communications satellite for the U.S. Space Force into orbit.
