Watch live coverage from Cape Canaveral as Falcon 9 rocket launches with 23 satellites for SpaceX's Starlink internet service.
Liftoff from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is scheduled for Friday, June 13 at 11:29a.m. EDT (1529 UTC). The first-stage booster, making its 21st flight, will land on SpaceX's drone ship 'A Shortfall of Gravitas,' stationed in the Atlantic Ocean, a little more than eight minutes after leaving the launch pad.
The mission, designated Starlink 12-26, will take a south-easterly trajectory on departure from Florida's Space Coast. Of the 23 satellites aboard, 13 are equipped for direct to cellphone communications.
Commentary will be provided by Spaceflight Now's Will Robinson-Smith starting about one hour before launch.
