SpaceX’s Falcon 9 is targeting the launch of 29 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

A live webcast of this mission will begin about 10 minutes prior to liftoff, which you can watch here and on X @SpaceX.

This will be the 13th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched SES O3b mPOWER-E, Crew-10, Bandwagon-3, mPOWER-D, CRS-33, and seven Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

A SpaceX Falcon 9 delivered another 29 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit on Sunday, July 5, making for a photogenic post-sunrise sight during the holiday weekend from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

And a pair of Fabships — pilot manufacturing pods built by the semiconductor manufacturing company Besxar — hitched a ride with the rocket's first-stage booster for flight testing.

The Falcon 9 lifted off from Launch Complex 40 at 6:50 a.m. The Starlink 10-50 mission clocked in as the 45th orbital rocket launch thus far during 2026 from the Space Force installation and NASA's neighboring Kennedy Space Center.

On Thursday, July 9, SpaceX has scheduled a similar Starlink satellite mission from Launch Complex 40. The four-hour launch window extends from 5:05 a.m. to 9:05 a.m., and the Falcon 9 will follow a northeasterly trajectory.
