On Wednesday, April 17 at 5:26 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 12th 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 six Starlink missions.
Following stage separation, the Falcon 9 booster landed on SpaceX’s drone ship Just Read the Instructions positioned positioned off the coast of The Bahamas.
