USSF-44 Mission

SpaceX is targeting Tuesday, November 1 at 9:41 a.m. ET (13:41 UTC) for Falcon Heavy’s launch of the USSF-44 mission to a geosynchronous Earth orbit from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. A backup launch opportunity is available on Wednesday, November 2 at 9:37 a.m. ET (13:37 UTC).

Following booster separation, Falcon Heavy’s two side boosters will land at SpaceX’s Landing Zones 1 and 2 (LZ-1 and LZ-2) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.

A live webcast of this mission will begin about 15 minutes prior to liftoff.

over 3 years since last Heavy launch, but so seamless that it looks like they have been doing it on a regular basis. Absolutely amazing.

27:00 the perfect double booster landing is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life.

[JasonHuebel]

The double-booster landing gives me chills every time.

[pellaeon]

Seeing those boosters land simultaneously will never get old.

[garrylaing]

Precision landing of the side boosters never gets old. Amazing.

[slainefeanor]

absolutely incredible. To see both boosters return and land like that is something I could never have imagined seeing within my lifetime. SpaceX team - you are remarkable!

Nobody can beat the coverage of a SpaceX launch and recovery, their coverage is second to none, beating out all other competition with awesome camera footage, impressive commentary where people don't talk over one another, the commentary stops as others update the mission and then resume as though never interrupted. There has never been a better space related subject in my opinion which can beat a double booster landing one a couple seconds behind the other. Outstanding work SpaceX team. Falcon heavy not flown for 3 years and then fly again as though it was a normal routine. You are the most professional SpaceX, the most enjoyable to watch and the most initiative of all other space companies. Way to go, thank you for an outstanding viewer sensational overall coverage. Star ship next 😊

It's stuff like this that inspires me. It's like I'm a kid again, just amazed by everything, with so much to learn. That twin booster landing is truly something to behold.

[vhierta]

That was probably the best tracking shot to date. That was beautiful!

[registeredberliner]

26:00 One of the most impressive minute of video footage human kind has ever produced. Truly amazing.

[stoneeh]

Wow, that was emotional. The team was so excited / happy. And what a rocket Falcon Heavy is. Great engineering, guys.

Epic. I love how you could see the other side booster land from the booster cam.

[madhououinkyoma]

This was the most beautiful landing footage I've ever seen. Especially at 26:20 with the booster falling through the clouds. Amazing!

To execute on such a difficult launch with 0 hiccups. The engineers, management, and other staff of SpaceX deserve all the praise. We'll always support you SpaceX!! 🚀🚀

[woolymittens]

Bravo No drama, no nonsense - just flawless execution every time! Bravo!

[kedo]

Hearing SpaceX employees wildly cheer at each stage of the launch and landing was a joy to hear. They were cheering their own work and its quality, and were proud of it. I cheer them!

[kostasololrockie]

I wonna get old and still feel the same felling as today when I see those two boosters land. What an incredible feeling

[imamfauzi]

I will never, ever, get tired of watching those beautiful launch and especially the landings 🔥🔥

[_asantesana_squashbanana_]

Why am I crying, after clapping like a seal and beaming at my phone like I'm looking at someone I love? Amazing footage and incredible atmosphere. Not to mention the effort behind the launch itself. Wow. Just wow. Always worth tuning in. Cheers 🚀

[starman]

Absolutely amazing. The tracking camera footage was outstanding. I can never get bored of watching SpaceX Launches & Landings.
