United Launch Alliance, Atlas V, Amazon Leo-6

On a day that saw SpaceX scrub a Falcon Heavy launch inside the last minute thanks to a nearbyh shower, United Launch Alliance had far better weather conditions later as the dusk faded into the night. They launched an Atlas V 551 at 8:53:30 PM EDT, sending another 29 broadband satellites toward low Earth orbit for the Amazon Leo constellation. ULA confirmed deployment of all 29 spacecraft shortly after.
