Launch Date: October 24 Launch Window: 1531 GMT (11:31 a.m. EDT) Launch site: SLC-40, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida Core Booster Recovery: ASDS Booster: B1060.3 Fairings: TBD Mass: 60 satellites at 260 kg each - 15,600 kg (34,500 lbs) Orbit: LEO A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch the 15th batch of approximately 60 satellites for SpaceX’s Starlink broadband network, a mission designated Starlink 14.
I figured it had been scrubbed with SpaceX posting on YouTube a 47:50 minute video of Mission Control audio saying nothing.
Successful launch, landing, and no attempt at catching a fairing because of weather. They will still pull them out of the ocean though. Milestone 100th successful launch: 98 F9's and 2 F1's. 63rd recovery of an orbital class booster. 43 times they have re-flown a previously flown booster. They are heading quickly toward 50% of all boosters having been reflown. The incredible cost savings and why SpaceX is now the world leader in orbital launches.
Last mission both ships were hit by falling rocket nose cone, what odds! Go Ms. Chief is, regardless of injury, is trying fish out some recoveries...
