CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – SpaceX is targeting the launch of a Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on Wednesday.

The target lift-off is set for 7:45 a.m. with a launch window until 8:02 a.m. The mission will launch 29 Starlink satellites to low Earth orbit and marks the 12th flight of the first-stage booster supporting the launch.

The booster previously supported missions including SES O3b mPOWER-E, Crew-10, Bandwagon-3, mPOWER-D, CRS-33, and six additional Starlink missions.

Following stage separation, the first stage booster is scheduled to land on SpaceX’s A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

The Space Force’s 45th Weather Squadron gave the mission only a 30% chance of favorable launch conditions.
