The rocket, which departed at 12:43 a.m. EDT from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, aimed to deploy 23 Starlink satellites, 13 of which feature direct-to-cell capabilities, into low-Earth orbit. These satellites will be added to the existing network of orbiting satellites that provide high-speed Internet services worldwide. The first-stage booster, making its 21st flight, safely landed on the Just Read the Instructions droneship in the Atlantic Ocean.
