Launch Date: July 23
Launch Window: 8:50pm EDT (5:50pm PDT, 00:50 UTC on the 24th)
Launch site: SLC-40, Cape Canaveral Space Force Station (CCSFS), Florida
Core Booster Recovery: ASDS
Booster: B1076.6
Fairings: Reused - 7th and 8th
Mass: 22 Starlink 2.0 mini Satellites
Orbit: LEO
Yearly Launch Number: 49
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch the 80th group of satellites for SpaceX’s Starlink broadband network, a mission designated Starlink 6-6. The Starlink Group 6-6 mission is the third V2 mini launch to their second generation constellation. V2satellites are also being sent to the second generation constellation with the Group 5 missions.
The Starlink Group 6-6 mission is headed to the 43º inclination shell of Starlink's second generation constellation. Satellites in this shell will be orbiting Earth in a 530km circular orbit at 43º inclination. This mission will carry 21 Starlink v2 Mini satellites into a 344x353km 43° orbit and from there they'll raise their orbits to operational altitude.
