SpaceX targets Monday morning for Falcon 9 rocket launch from Cape Canaveral
SpaceX plans to kick off the work week with a Falcon 9 rocket launch from Cape Canaveral, delivering more Starlink internet satellites to orbit. The liftoff is set for no earlier than 6:07 a.m. Monday, June 8 from Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. If needed, SpaceX has until 10:07 a.m. to make the launch window. The mission, known as Starlink 10-35, will launch 29 of the company's Starlink satellites to orbit. The Falcon 9 rocket will travel on a northeast trajectory after liftoff. Falcon 9 usually flies about twice a week, but launches have slowed this year as SpaceX focuses on getting Starship operations ready for Cape Canaveral. With May almost to an end, this flight will mark Florida's 39th launch of the year. That is well behind last year’s record-setting pace of 109 launches. When is the next launch? Is there a launch today? SpaceX, NASA, ULA rocket launch schedule in Florida Falcon 9 rockets are currently only launched from one launch pad in Florida, and as of last month, SpaceX pulled its Just Read the Instructions drone ship to support Starship operations. No Brevard sonic booms are expected Monday, as the rocket’s first stage booster will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
