At 2:04am (ET) on Saturday, August 26, 2017 Orbital ATK successfully launch the ORS-5 satellite from Launch Complex 46 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The satellite was launched atop a Minotaur IV missile/rocket. Many Space Coast residents stayed up late (or got up early) to watch the launch. This was the first time since 1999 that SLC-46 has been used. And, the last time a Minotaur rocket was launched was in September, 2011. (Photo by Michael Seeley / We Report Space)
