Cape Canaveral, United States - May 14, 2025 A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched the Starlink 6-67 mission from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on May 14 at 12:38 p.m. EDT (1638 GMT). The rocket soared into cloudy blue skies, carrying 28 wireless internet satellites to low Earth orbit. This was the fourth mission for booster B1090. It previously supported the SES O3b mPOWER-E mission, NASA's Crew-10 flight, and the Bandwagon-3 rideshare mission. About 2.5 minutes into the flight, the nine Merlin engines cut off. Stage separation followed shortly after. The upper stage continued carrying the Starlink satellites, while the booster slowed for landing. At around 8.5 minutes after launch, B1090 landed safely on the drone ship A Shortfall of Gravitas in the Atlantic Ocean. The 28 satellites are expected to deploy from the rocket’s payload adapter about one hour after launch. Each satellite will spend several days maneuvering into position within the Starlink megaconstellation. The Starlink network now includes more than 7,000 operational satellites. It provides high-speed internet to nearly every part of the planet, except the poles. Today's launch was the 58th Falcon 9 mission of 2025 and SpaceX’s 60th liftoff overall this year. The other two launches used SpaceX’s Starship rocket, which is scheduled for another test as early as May 21.
