SpaceX conducts a second and successful hot fire test of its new Falcon 9 v1.1 rocket in preparation for its maiden demonstration flight this month.
The launch will also be the first out of SpaceX’s new Vandenberg launch complex and will launch the Canadian CASSIOPE satellite along with several other nanosats.

The earliest launch date could be September 29.
