SpaceX is targeting a Sunday morning launch of more Starlink satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base.
The launch window is planned for 8:47 a.m. with an additional launch opportunity that same day at 12:45 p.m. with backup opportunities also available on Monday at 8:34 a.m. and 12:31 p.m.
SpaceX will be utilizing a Falcon 9 rocket to send 49 Starlink satellites and D-Orbit’s ION SCV009 Eclectic Elena to low-Earth orbit.
The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched NROL-87, NROL-85, SARah-1, SWOT, and two Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship stationed in the Pacific Ocean.
The rocket will head southward and could be visible within 100 miles of the base.
A live webcast of this mission will begin about five minutes prior to liftoff.
