VANDENBERG SPACE FORCE BASE, Calif. (KEYT) – A Falcon 9 launch of 27 Starlink satellites destined for a low-Earth orbit is scheduled for liftoff on Tuesday, Oct. 20, between 3:14 p.m. and 7:14 p.m. Pacific Time.
According to Vandenberg Space Force Base, this launch will tie the previous record for annual launches from the local spaceport and part of a planned increase of up to 100 launches per year.
A live webcast of the launch will begin about ten minutes before liftoff. You can tune in to watch here or on SpaceX's X/Twitter account.
Following first-stage separation, the booster assigned to this mission will return to Earth to land on the Of Course I Still Love You drone ship awaiting in the Pacific Ocean.
A depiction of that launch sequence is shown in the image below.
There is the potential for one or more sonic booms associated with the launch, but how far the sound travels will depend on weather and other conditions at launch time.
This will be the 36th flight for the Falcon 9 on this mission. The same booster previously launched the following missions: Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, DART, Transporter-7, Iridium OneWeb, SDA-0B, NROL-113, NROL-167, NROL-149, NAOS, and 26 prior Starlink missions.
