On Thursday, September 5 at 11:33 a.m. ET, Falcon 9 launched 21 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 15th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Crew-5, GPS III Space Vehicle 06, Inmarsat I6-F2, CRS-28, Intelsat G-37, NG-20, and now nine Starlink missions.
Following stage separation, the Falcon 9 booster landed on SpaceX’s drone ship Just Read the Instructions positioned in the Atlantic Ocean.
