SpaceX is targeting Saturday, July 22 at 7:34 p.m. ET (23:34 UTC) for a Falcon 9 launch of 22 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Base in Florida. If needed, there are up to three additional launch opportunities starting at 9:15 p.m. ET (1:15 UTC on July 23) until 10:56 p.m. ET (2:56 UTC on July 23). Up to four backup opportunities are also available on Sunday, July 23 starting at 7:09 p.m. ET (23:09 UTC) until 10:31 p.m. ET (2:31 UTC on July 24). This is the sixth flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched CRS-26, OneWeb Launch 16, Intelsat IS-40e, and two Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Just Read the Instructions droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. A live webcast of this mission will begin about five minutes prior to liftoff.
