Results Sep 16🤖 Context
The market pays out yes if the Falcon 9 assigned to USSF‑259 ignites its engines and clears the pad from SLC‑4E at Vandenberg during the first scheduled launch attempt, which begins at 6:00 PM PDT on September 15, 2026, and that liftoff is reported by SpaceX, the U.S. Space Force range operator, or major outlets. Spaceflight Now reported that the September 15 attempt was scrubbed before fueling in an update at 9:05 PM EDT on September 15, 2026, and the mission was moved to a backup window on September 16. Because the scrub occurred before ignition the engines never fired and the vehicle did not clear the pad, so the condition was not met and the market resolves no.

Final crowd probability
The crowd was 91% sure, and they got it wrong.
Why: Spaceflight Now’s live coverage of the USSF-259 attempt states the Sept. 15 launch attempt was scrubbed prior to fueling (update Sept. 15, 2026, 21:05 EDT) and the mission was reset to a backup window on Sept. 16. A scrub prior to fueling/ignition means engines did not ignite and the vehicle did not clear the pad, so the Sept. 15, 6:00 PM PDT attempt did not result in liftoff.

Given the timeline and SpaceX's track record, I’d say the Falcon 9 will likely lift off on schedule. The countdown hustle is real, and they've been solid lately.
