SpaceX is targeting Sunday, July 17 for a Falcon 9 launch of 53 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The instantaneous launch window is at 10:50 a.m. ET (14:50 UTC), and a backup opportunity is available on Monday, July 18 at 10:28 a.m. ET (14:28 UTC).
The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched Dragon's first crew demonstration mission, the RADARSAT Constellation Mission, SXM-7, and nine Starlink missions. Following stage separation, Falcon 9's first stage will return to Earth and land on the Just Read the Instructions droneship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.
A live webcast of this mission will begin about five minutes prior to liftoff.
