The Falcon 9 rocket carrying the satellites lifted off at 11:06 a.m. ET from Area Launch Complicated 40 at Cape Canaveral Area Drive Station.
“Galaxy 31 (G-31) and Galaxy 32 (G-32) are the subsequent satellites in Intelsat’s complete Galaxy fleet refresh plan, a brand new era of expertise that can present Intelsat Media clients in North America with high-performance media distribution capabilities and unmatched penetration of cable headed,” Kennedy Area Middle experiences.
The subsequent huge launch from Florida’s Area Coast will probably be NASA’s Artemis 1 moon rocket, which is about to carry off from Kennedy Area Center early Wednesday morning, Nov. 16. The 2-hour launch window opens at 1:04 a.m. Countdown will start at 1:24 a.m.
Texas A&M (49-13) has reached the College World Series for the second time in three seasons under head coach Jim Schlossnagle. On Saturday night, the Aggies will face a feisty Florida Gators (34-28) team. Both programs last met during the start of SEC play in early mid-March.
As the game’s 6:06 p.m. start time approached, the weather in Omaha, Nebraska, took a turn, adding an element of unpredictability to the new start time, leading to the field being covered with a tarp. With no new start time confirmed, the game could potentially resume as late as 11:00 p.m., heightening the anticipation for the fans.
Here is the new broadcast information. We will update you on any changes, including the new starting time.

If all goes right for the Florida Panthers on Saturday night in Game 4 against the Edmonton Oilers, we could be. It would be the first time the Final ended in four games since 1998, when the Detroit Red Wings dusted the Washington Capitals. Here’s a fun fact: Oilers general manager Ken Holland was the Red Wings GM that year, and it was the second of back-to-back sweeps in the Cup final for Detroit.
If you can believe it, the Red Wings’ 1998 championship was also the fourth straight NHL season that ended through a sweep in the final round.
For the sake of the sport — if the Panthers win — let’s hope this doesn’t start another streak of Cup Final sweeps.

Through three games, the Panthers have stifled the Oilers’ best players and have gotten incredible goaltending to get themselves within one win of a Stanley Cup while holding a 3-0 series stranglehold. The Panthers had only won one game in their Stanley Cup Final history entering this series (they were swept in 1996 and were beaten in five games last year versus Vegas).

Florida Panthers at Edmonton Oilers — Game 4
How to watch: 8 p.m. ET on ABC, SN
Panthers lead series 3-0
Series odds: Panthers -3000, Oilers +1300
Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl and Evan Bouchard are all atop the NHL points leaderboard this postseason. Through three games, they’ve combined for four points. Neither of the three nor Zach Hyman, who leads all goalscorers with 14 this spring, have scored a goal in this series.
Warren Foegele’s breakaway goal in Game 2 was significant for the Oilers: the first goal scored by an Oilers forward in the series. Ryan McLeod is now the second Oiler forward to score in this year’s Cup Final.
Patrick Roy still has the highest save percentage ever recorded in one Stanley Cup Final at .974, following a scintillating performance for the Colorado Avalanche against Florida in 1996. How’s Sergei Bobrovsky’s save percentage through three Cup Final games? .953. It’s a rate that ties him with New York Islanders legend Billy Smith for seventh-best among goalies in NHL history.
Florida Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk has gone cold recently. He scored his first point of the series in Game 3. He’s gone scoreless in his last eight games and hasn’t scored since Game 1 of the Eastern Conference final. Contrast that to his fellow former Calgary Flame teammate Sam Bennett who is on a six-game points streak (four goals, seven points).
