Watch as SpaceX launches a Falcon 9 rocket with 24 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit. Liftoff is targeted from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.
This launch marks an incredible milestone for reusable rocket technology: the first-stage booster supporting this mission will be making a record 26th flight. It previously launched Crew-7, CRS-29, PACE, Transporter-10, EarthCARE, NROL-186, Transporter-13, TRACERS, NROL-48, COSMO-SkyMED Second Generation FM3, and 15 Starlink missions.
Following stage separation, the first stage will return to Earth and target a touchdown on the “Of Course I Still Love You” droneship stationed in the Pacific Ocean.
