UPDATE: Monday morning’s launch was originally targeted for Sunday, to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, but the company scrubbed the attempt after propellant loading had begun.
Tomorrow’s launch is the third launch of this weekend for SpaceX.
SpaceX is targeting Sunday, November 19 for a Falcon 9 launch of 22 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Liftoff is targeted for 10:33 p.m. PT, with backup opportunities available until 2:30 a.m. PT on Monday, November 20.
This launch will be after the 23 Starlink internet satellites that were launched from Florida on Saturday, November 18.
The first event took place on Friday night November 17, when 23 Starlinks were sent up from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
Next on Saturday, SpaceX launched the second test flight of Starship, the giant next-generation system it’s developing to help humanity set up shop on the moon and Mars.
And lastly, tomorrow, Monday, November 20 will conclude the trio of launches for SpaceX.
A live webcast of this mission will begin on X @SpaceX about five minutes prior to liftoff. Watch live.
This is the 15th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, DART, Transporter-7, Iridium OneWeb, SDA-0B, and nine Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship, which will be stationed in the Pacific Ocean.
