SpaceX is looking to complete its second launch within 24 hours with the flight of the Starlink 6-76 mission from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.
The Falcon 9 rocket is expected to liftoff from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) on Tuesday, Nov. 26 at 10:05 p.m. EST (0305 UTC on Nov. 27). The rocket will fly in a south-easterly trajectory once it leaves the pad.
Spaceflight Now will have live coverage beginning about an hour prior to liftoff.
As was the case with the Starlink 12-1 mission Monday morning, the Monday night launch is also expected to include pristine weather conditions. The 45th Weather Squadron forecast a greater than 95 percent chance of good liftoff weather with no concerns being tracked.
The Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission, B1078 in the SpaceX fleet, will launch for a 15th time. It previously supported the launches of Crew-6, USSF-124 and 10 previous Starlink missions.
A little more than eight minutes after launch, B1078 will land on the SpaceX droneship, ‘A Shortfall of Gravitas.’ If successful, this will be the 87th booster landing for ASOG and the 375th booster landing to date.
