SpaceX is targeting Monday for a third attempt to launch the SES-8 communications satellite from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, the company said today.

“Rocket engines are healthy, but cleaning turbopump gas generators will take another day,” CEO Elon Musk tweeted. “Aiming for Mon eve launch.”

The launch window Monday would open at 5:41 p.m. EST, and there’s a 60 percent chance of favorable weather conditions.
