Mission Overview

This mission continues SpaceX’s deployment of its second-generation Starlink constellation, with 28 V2-mini satellites headed into low Earth orbit. These upgraded spacecraft provide faster internet speeds, greater coverage, and improved reliability for SpaceX’s growing satellite network.

The V2-Mini satellites include several key innovations:

  • Compact but powerful: Designed to fit Falcon 9’s fairing while retaining Gen-2 features.

  • Electric propulsion: Equipped with argon Hall thrusters, offering better efficiency and maneuverability than earlier models.

  • Dynamic fleet capability: Optimized for high-speed broadband, with some launches including Direct-to-Cell payloads for future mobile connectivity.

  • High capacity: Each satellite helps scale Starlink’s total bandwidth, improving internet access for underserved and remote regions worldwide.

Following liftoff, Falcon 9’s first-stage booster will attempt to land on the autonomous drone ship A Shortfall of Gravitas in the Atlantic Ocean—a highlight for launch spectators.
