On Tuesday, June 10 at 9:05 a.m. ET, Falcon 9 launched 23 Starlink satellites, including 13 with Direct to Cell capabilities, to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

This was the 12th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Crew-8, Polaris Dawn, CRS-31, Astranis: From One to Many, IM-2, and now seven Starlink missions.

A little more than eight minutes after liftoff, booster B1083 landed on the droneship Just Read the Instructions. This was the 124th booster landing on this vessel and the 460th booster landing to date.

Onboard the Falcon 9 rocket were 23 Starlink V2 Mini optimized satellites, of which 13 have direct to cell capabilities. Prior to this launch, SpaceX launched 260 DTC-capable Starlink satellites so far this year.
