SpaceX - Falcon 9 - Starlink Group 6-25 - SLC-40 - CCSFS - Space Affairs Livestream

SpaceX is targeting Sunday, October 29 at 7:45 p.m. EDT, 23:45 UTC (00:45 CET, October 30) 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. If needed, seven backup opportunities are available starting at 8:17 p.m. ET until 10:47 p.m. ET. Eight backup opportunities are also currently available on Monday, October 30 starting at 7:20 p.m. ET until 10:22 p.m. ET. This is the eighth flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Crew-5, GPS III Space Vehicle 06, Inmarsat I6-F2, CRS-28, Intelsat G-37, and two Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Just Read the Instructions droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. A note: Livestreams by SpaceX on X (Formerly known as Twitter) are sometimes not of excellent quality. If this is to be seen during a live stream, we will share the replay of the mission directly afterward on our live stream after the scheduled one. We want you to know that because of the constantly shifting lift-off times for the Starlink missions (launch windows are open for a minimum of 4 hours), we reserve the right to cancel the live stream (even at short notice). We are in CEST and can not stay awake all night because of a launch that is moved every half hour in time as usual in recent weeks. We are okay when a launch (besides Starlink) or another event is scheduled in time, even in the middle of the night in our timezone CEST. Out of this, it is TBD (To Be Determined). We will stream it if the TBD isn’t given in the stream title; sometimes, we will change this when deciding to show it. Information: SpaceX deleted all their social media links besides “X“ (formerly known as Twitter). They also decided not to stream anymore on YouTube. Instead, they will stream exclusively on “X“. The quality of those streams on X isn’t sometimes high-quality, so understand that if the stream is not of such a quality as before, we can’t influence that. If we see a drop of quality during the live stream, we will show it directly in the stream as a live replay, which is mostly 100% better. We do the best that we can. Also, there will be no live comment by SpaceX for Starlink launches. You will hear mission control team communication.
