BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – SpaceX is set to launch another batch of its Starlink V2 Mini satellites into low Earth orbit during a four-hour launch window that opens at 12:13 a.m. ET.
The highly anticipated launch will take place from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
The mission marks another step in SpaceX’s ongoing efforts to expand its Starlink constellation, which aims to provide high-speed internet coverage to underserved and remote areas around the globe.

The V2 Mini satellites represent a significant upgrade over the earlier versions, featuring improved bandwidth capacity and enhanced capabilities to meet growing demands for connectivity.
The Falcon 9 rocket, a cornerstone of SpaceX’s reusable launch vehicle fleet, will carry the satellites into orbit. A little more than eight minutes after liftoff, the first stage of the rocket is scheduled to return to Earth, landing on a SpaceX droneship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.
This precision recovery method is a hallmark of SpaceX’s approach to sustainable and cost-effective spaceflight.
Weather conditions and technical readiness will play key roles in the mission’s success.
