SpaceX Starlink Launch Set for Friday Morning from Cape Canaveral
SpaceX is gearing up for another major Starlink mission, with a Falcon 9 rocket scheduled to lift off Friday morning from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The rocket will carry 23 Starlink satellites into low Earth orbit to further expand the company’s internet satellite network.
The launch window opens at 11:21 a.m., with backup opportunities extending through 11:44 a.m. If needed, additional launch slots are available on Saturday starting at 7:18 a.m.
This mission marks the 21st flight for this Falcon 9 first-stage booster, which previously supported high-profile missions including Crew-6, SES O3b mPOWER-B, USSF-124, and several past Starlink deployments.
As usual, SpaceX will livestream the launch, and viewers can catch the coverage directly through News 6’s platform once the rocket is ready to fly.
With every successful Starlink mission, SpaceX continues to bolster its global satellite internet service, bringing high-speed connectivity to remote and underserved regions.
