Watch live coverage as SpaceX launches a Falcon 9 rocket carrying 29 satellites for Elon Musk's Starlink internet service. Liftoff from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is scheduled for Thursday, February 19, at 8:41:40 p.m. EST (0141:40 UTC). The first-stage booster for this mission, B1077, launching for a 26th time, will land on SpaceX's drone ship 'Just Read the Instructions', stationed in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of The Bahamas, less than 8.5 minutes after leaving the launch pad.
The mission, designated Starlink 10-36, will take a south-easterly trajectory on departure from Florida's Space Coast. This will be just the second booster landing in proximity to The Bahamas, coming exactly one year after the launch of the Starlink 10-12 mission in 2025.
We will also be providing coverage as launch teams at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida perform a critical, prelaunch test called the wet dress rehearsal (WDR). Engineers are hoping they have fixed a hydrogen leak that stopped a previous dress rehearsal on Feb. 3.
The test is supposed to culminate on Thursday, Feb. 19, with a planned cutoff just prior to a simulated T-0 of 8:30 p.m. EST (0130 UTC).
Our live coverage with commentary will start about one hour prior to launch.
