Watch live: SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launches 22 Starlink satellites from Cape Canaveral

Watch live coverage as SpaceX launches a Falcon 9 rocket with another batch of 22 Starlink V2 Mini satellites. Liftoff from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is scheduled for 5:47 p.m. EDT (2147 UTC) on Saturday, Oct. 26. The rocket's first-stage booster, tail number B1069 in the SpaceX fleet, will land on the droneship 'Just Read the Instructions', stationed in the Atlantic Ocean, a little more than eight minutes after leaving the launch pad.

The mission, designated Starlink 10-8, will be the 69th launch of Starlink satellites and the 101st flight of a Falcon 9 rocket this year. The rocket will take a northeasterly trajectory after lifting off from Florida's space coast.

Commentary will begin approximately an hour prior to liftoff.

Another great launch. And Pete's long lens give us a memorable view of Fairing Separation after staging.

One of the Falcon Heavy missions was not just Earth orbital but solar orbital

This is becoming normal to us. It's still amazing, but it's normal. If this can not be done by other companies or countries, we will start considering them to be 3rd world tech.

Has anyone ever thought about all of pollution those rockets create when taking off? And you all complain about gas powered vehicles and the emissions they create. Oh no, it's for science etc. There's better things to spend money on. Like helping the people who lost everything to Hurricane Helene and Milton. Or how about the people on Maui who lost everything to the wildfires? Let's think of using the money to help Americans that are homeless instead of wasting it on firing rockets into outer space and go through the ozone layer. Think about these things the next time you want to send a rocket into space. And another thing. What happens to those rockets that become useless or explode in outer space or before they even get that far? God bless.
