The year’s last rocket launch from SpaceX is set to blast off from Florida’s Space Coast early Tuesday morning.
SpaceX is targeting a 12:39 a.m. Tuesday launch of its Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center. The rocket will carry 21 Starlink internet satellites, including 13 with direct-to-cell capabilities. The launch window is open for a little under an hour, with opportunities available until 1:28 a.m. Tuesday morning.
This will be the 16th flight for the Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission. A few highlights on the rocket booster’s resume include the Crew-6 and BlueBird-1 launches.
SpaceX is planning to land the rocket booster on a ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
