SpaceX launches Starlink satellites from California, Florida over six hours

  • On May 9 and 10, 2025, SpaceX conducted two separate Starlink satellite deployments, launching from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
  • The launches followed multiple delays during the week, with SpaceX not disclosing reasons for these postponements.
  • The first launch deployed 26 satellites using a Falcon 9 booster on its 14th flight, which landed on a drone ship in the Pacific Ocean, while the second deployed 28 satellites on an 11th flight booster that landed in the Atlantic Ocean.
  • Together, these missions added to SpaceX's Starlink network, which now includes more than 7,000 operational satellites providing high-speed internet worldwide except near the poles.
  • These launches represent SpaceX’s continued high launch cadence in 2025, with 55 Falcon 9 flights conducted so far from both coasts and further missions planned.
