United Launch Alliance is planning two rocket launches within a week of each other. If you include Thursday morning's SpaceX launch, that makes three launches from Brevard County in two weeks.
On Saturday, ULA will launch a Delta IV rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The launch window opens at 7:44 p.m.
The rocket is carrying the WGS-9, part of a communications satellite system for the U.S. Air Force.
Then on Friday, March 24, ULA will launch an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral AFB. The window opens at 9 p.m.
The Atlas is carrying the Orbital ATK Cygnus cargo spacecraft, which will carry supplies to the International Space Station for NASA.
