SpaceX to Launch 24 Starlink Satellites Today: Falcon 9 Mission Set for 4:02 p.m. ET

Today, November 11, SpaceX is set to launch 24 Starlink satellites from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. The mission got delayed due to weather conditions, is scheduled to launch at 4:02 pm EST, and remains open for four hours and closes at 7:44 pm.

The Falcon 9 rocket will boost the satellites to low Earth orbit, where the deployment is expected to occur about 65 minutes after liftoff. It will then attempt a landing on the droneship “A Shortfall of Gravitas” during the first-stage separation over the Atlantic at that time.
