SpaceX targets Sunday, January 7, for a Falcon 9 launch of 23 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Liftoff is targeted for 4:00 p.m. ET, 21:00 UTC, and 22:00 CET, with backup opportunities available until 7:59 p.m. ET. Additional opportunities are also available on Monday, January 8, starting at 4:01 p.m. ET. This is the 16th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched CRS-22, Crew-3, Turksat 5B, Crew-4, CRS-25, Eutelsat HOTBIRD 13G, mPOWER-a, PSN SATRIA, and seven Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. The launch window is about 4 hours, so be prepared for shifting of T-Zero several times.
