A second launch this week from the West Coast was reset from Wednesday to Friday night, to carry 20 Starlink satellites, including 13 with Direct to Cell capabilities, to low-Earth orbit from Vandenberg Space Force Base.
SpaceX is targeting Nov. 8, at 10:14 p.m. for liftoff of a Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 4E, according to base officials.
Following stage separation, the first stage booster will land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship, which will be stationed in the Pacific Ocean, for later retrieval.
This is the 11th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched NASA Crew-7, CRS-29, NROL-186, EarthCARE, Transporter-10, PACE, and four Starlink missions.
A live webcast of the mission will begin approximately 5 minutes prior to liftoff on www.spacex.com and 0n X @SpaceX.
