SpaceX's attempt to launch a record 143 satellites on a single Falcon 9 rocket was stopped Saturday due to poor weather conditions. .

The launch will be the fifth flight for SpaceX's Falcon 9 first-stage booster, but the team's first mission of a rideshare program, carrying 10 Starlink internet satellites and 133 other small satellites

In its rideshare program, SpaceX allows small satellite operators to book a fraction of a payload on a Falcon 9 launch

Tech Crunch reported Saturday that the previous record was from the Indian Space Research Organization’s Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle-C37 launch in February 2017

SpaceX has seen success over the past year, including the flawless launch of the company's first-ever crewed launch to the International Space Station
