SpaceX plans to launch a Falcon 9 rocket post-midnight on Sunday, December 6, from Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 40. The launch is expected at 12:12 a.m., with backup opportunities until 1:02 a.m. ET, according to the Space Force’s 45th Weather Squadron, which predicts over 95% chance of favorable conditions.
The rocket will travel on a southeast trajectory after liftoff and land eight minutes later on the A Shortfall of Gravitas drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean. The launch is part of SpaceX’s latest batch of Starlink satellites.
Viewers who stay up late can expect to see the launch light up the skies over Cape Canaveral. Live updates will be available on this page starting 90 minutes prior to launch time.
