and last updated SpaceX is gearing up for its next launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base that will send 25 Starlink satellites to low-Earth Orbit. Wednesday’s four-hour launch window is between 6:43 p.m. and 10:43 p.m., according to SpaceX. The first-stage booster that’s part of the Falcon-9 launch has been used nine previous times. Seven of those were Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the booster is expected to land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship in the Pacific Ocean. No sonic boom is expected to be heard locally. A live webcast of the launch will begin about five minutes prior to liftoff and can be viewed on X @SpaceX or the X TV app. This is the fourth launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base this month. All have been SpaceX missions. Copyright 2026 Scripps Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed. More News In Your Community
