SpaceX launched 27 Starlink satellites from California's Vandenberg Space Force Base on a Falcon 9; the first stage landed on the drone ship ‘Of Course I Still Love You’ about 8.5 minutes after liftoff, and the 27 satellites deployed roughly 62 minutes after launch, boosting the active Starlink fleet to over 11,100. Booster 1093 was on its 17th flight, and this flight marked SpaceX’s 107th Falcon 9 mission of 2026 and the 81st Starlink mission of the year.
