Watch live coverage as SpaceX launches a Falcon 9 rocket with 23 satellites for Elon Musk's Starlink internet service. Liftoff from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is scheduled for 10:19 a.m. EST (1519 UTC) on Friday, February 20. The first-stage booster will land on SpaceX's drone ship 'A Shortfall of Gravitas', stationed in the Atlantic Ocean, a little more than eight and a half minutes after leaving the launch pad.
The mission, designated Starlink 12-14, will take a south-easterly trajectory on departure from Florida's Space Coast. Among the 21 Starlink satellites, 13 feature direct-to-cellphone capabilities.
