SpaceX’s Falcon 9 is targeting the launch of 29 Starlink smallsats to low-Earth orbit to join the Starlink constellation from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida from 10:21 PM – 1:59 AM EST.
According to weather officials, there’s a 60% chance of favorable weather conditions at the time of the launch. Officials are monitoring weather conditions with concerns related to Liftoff Winds. The forecast calls for a temperature of 56°F, scattered clouds, 25% cloud cover and a wind speed of 22mph.
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 X TV app.
This will be the third flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched KF-01 and IMAP. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Just Read the Instructions droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.
