SpaceX plans to launch a Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on Sunday, July 5. The mission aims to deploy 29 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit. The launch window opens at 6:36 a.m. ET and closes at 10:36 a.m. ET. This will be the 13th flight for the Falcon 9’s first stage booster, which previously supported missions including Crew-10, seven Starlink launches, and Bandwagon-3. The booster will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship in the Atlantic Ocean after stage separation. Besxar’s Fabships, two reusable manufacturing pods, are also aboard the mission. The pods are being tested for their ability to survive launch and re-entry conditions as part of Besxar’s development program. SpaceX’s launch team has conducted final checks at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, with weather forecasts indicating a 70% chance of favorable conditions for liftoff. The mission follows a busy week of events on Brevard’s Space Coast, including Independence Day celebrations and a record number of academic honors for Eastern Florida State College athletes. The Falcon 9’s first stage has previously landed at Cape Canaveral and on drone ships in the Atlantic. This flight marks the first time the Fabships will be exposed to the stresses of orbital flight. SpaceX officials did not specify the exact time of the launch within the window but confirmed the mission is a priority for the company’s Starlink expansion efforts. The launch will be visible from parts of Florida and the eastern seaboard, with live coverage available through Space Coast Daily TV.
