SpaceX's Falcon 9 Starlink mission was delayed due to severe weather in California.

The region is facing an 'atmospheric river' causing heavy rain, mudslides, and significant damage.

A rescheduled launch is planned for Wednesday night, pending weather conditions.

The ongoing crisis in California has resulted in at least five fatalities and estimated damages of $11 billion.

SpaceX's Starlink megaconstellation, aiming to deliver global internet coverage, features nearly 5,400 satellites.

In conjunction with the postponed Starlink mission, SpaceX is also managing a crewed return flight from the ISS on Wednesday morning.

Other space agencies, including JAXA and Roscosmos, have important missions this week, indicating a busy period for space endeavors.
