Thursday's launch was SpaceX's 49th Falcon 9 mission of 2025. SpaceX has another launch coming up later tonight. The Starlink 12-10 mission will liftoff out of Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, and is scheduled for 10:31 p.m. EDT (0231 GMT, April 29).

The Starlink 12-23 mission lifted off into the night from Cape Canaveral SLC-40. Onboard were 23 Starlink satellites.

A United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket and a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket should lift off back-to-back from Florida's Space Coast. First, ULA is targeting 7 p.m. to launch the Atlas V — which is outfitted with five solid rocket boosters — and deploy the first production batch of Amazon Project Kuiper broadband satellites into low-Earth orbit.
