SpaceX finished its February 2026 Starlink satellite deployments with three rocket launches this week, sending 83 satellites into low Earth orbit. The final mission of the month lifted off Friday from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, marking the company’s third flight in a span of four days.
The first launch occurred Tuesday at 6:04 p.m. EST from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral, carrying 29 Starlink satellites. A second Falcon 9 rocket launched 25 satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California the next day at 9:17 a.m. EST. Both missions used different launch pads and occurred within hours of each other on opposite coasts.
The third flight took place Friday at 7:16 a.m. EST from the same Cape Canaveral complex that hosted the first mission. This final launch added 29 more satellites to the growing Starlink constellation. All three missions followed standard SpaceX procedures, with first-stage boosters landing back at the launch sites.
The launches come as part of SpaceX’s ongoing effort to expand global broadband coverage through its Starlink network. With 83 new satellites deployed this week, the company continues to increase the number of active satellites in its constellation. No major delays or technical issues were reported during the three flights.
