SpaceX is targeting Wednesday, November 13 for a Falcon 9 launch of 20 Starlink satellites, including 13 with Direct to Cell capabilities, to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Liftoff is targeted for 9:23 p.m. PT. If needed, additional opportunities are also available on Thursday, November 14 starting at 7:57 p.m. PT. • This is the eighth flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Oneweb 4, USSF-62, and five Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship, which will be stationed in the Pacific Ocean. • Weather Forecast During Launch • The forecast calls for a temperature of 61°F, few clouds, 17% cloud cover and a wind speed of 13mph. • Trajectory • Southeast over Baja, California • Starlink Group 9-11 • Mission • Starlink Group 9-11 • Type: Communications • Orbit: Low Earth Orbit • Launch Cost: $52,000,000 • A batch of 20 satellites for the Starlink mega-constellation – SpaceX’s project for space-based Internet communication system. • Starlink Group 9-11 • Location • Space Launch Complex 4E • Vandenberg SFB, CA, USA • Space Launch Complex 4E has witnessed the launch of 165 rockets, including 165 orbital launch attempts, while Vandenberg SFB, CA, USA, has been the site for 777 rocket launches. • Space Launch Complex 4E • Rocket • SpaceX Falcon 9 Block 5 • Falcon 9 is a two-stage rocket designed and manufactured by SpaceX for the reliable and safe transport of satellites and the Dragon spacecraft into orbit. The Block 5 variant is the fifth major interval aimed at improving upon the ability for rapid reusability. • Falcon 9 Block 5 • Landing • Core B1082 • Booster B1082 last launched 10/20/2024 and has seen 7 successful launches and landings. Falcon 9 Block 5 booster. • Of Course I Still Love You – OCISLY • The second ASDS barge, Of Course I Still Love You (OCISLY) services launches in the Pacific Ocean and was the site of the first landing of a SpaceX Falcon 9 first stage during CRS-8, the launch of a Dragon spacecraft to the International Space Station. • Autonomous Spaceport Drone Ship – ASDS • An autonomous spaceport drone ship (ASDS) is an ocean-going vessel derived from a deck barge, outfitted with station-keeping engines and a large landing platform. Construction of such ships was commissioned by aerospace company SpaceX to allow for recovery of rocket first-stages at sea for high-velocity missions which do not carry enough fuel to return to the launch site after lofting spacecraft onto an orbital trajectory. • 0:00 Start Pre-Roll • 10:38 SpaceX LIVE T-5:00 • 15:30 LIFTOFF! • 18:09 MECO-STAGING • 23:30 Landing Burn
