SpaceX moves launch of 28 Starlink smallsats Group 10-59 to Monday depending on 99% cloud cover

October 5, 2025

For Fernando, a farmer from Taquaritinga, in the countryside of São Paulo, Starlink solved a problem that once seemed unsolvable. “We had tried other internet solutions before, but none of them were satisfactory,” says Fernando, who runs an agricultural business with his two brothers. With the arrival of Starlink, they were able to shift several administrative tasks directly to the farm’s headquarters…

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 is targeting Monday, October 6 for the launch of 28 Starlink smallsats to low-Earth orbit that will join the Starlink constellation from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida at 9:10 PM – 1:10 AM PDT.

The forecast calls for a temperature of 79°F, moderate rain, 99% cloud cover, a wind speed of 21mph and 1.63in of rain.

A live webcast of this mission will begin about five minutes prior to liftoff, which you can watch on X @SpaceX. You can also watch the webcast on the new X TV app.

This is the eighth flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched CRS-33, O3b mPOWER-E, Crew-10, Bandwagon-3, O3b mPOWER-D, and two Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.
