SpaceX is preparing to launch another batch of its Starlink internet satellites from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on Sunday, October 26, 2025.
A Falcon 9 rocket carrying 28 satellites is scheduled to lift off from Space Launch Complex 40 during a launch window that opens at 10:05 a.m. and extends through 2:05 p.m. ET, according to SpaceX.
The launch will mark the 24th flight for the Falcon 9 first-stage booster supporting this mission — a veteran rocket that has previously carried out major missions including Crew-5, GPS III Space Vehicle 06, Inmarsat I6-F2, CRS-28, Intelsat G-37, NG-20, TD7, and 16 previous Starlink missions.
Following stage separation, the booster is expected to land on SpaceX’s A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.
A live webcast of the Starlink mission will begin approximately five minutes before liftoff, available on SpaceX.com and on X (formerly Twitter) @SpaceX, as well as through the X TV app.
If weather and technical conditions cooperate, this launch will continue SpaceX’s ambitious efforts to expand its global Starlink network — providing high-speed internet access across the globe through thousands of satellites in low-Earth orbit.
