On Wednesday, May 8 at 2:42 p.m. ET, Falcon 9 launched 23 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
This was the third flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Crew-8 and now two Starlink missions.
Following stage separation, the Falcon 9 booster landed on SpaceX’s drone ship A Shortfall Of Gravitas positioned off the coast of The Bahamas.
