Live updates from June's Friday the 13th SpaceX Starlink 12-26 mission that launched a Falcon 9 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

"Falcon completes its 500th overall mission! Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team for making the impossible possible on the road to rapidly reusable rockets!"

Amazon is preparing to launch its second batch of Project Kuiper internet satellites to orbit as it seeks to build out a constellation to take on SpaceX’s Starlink service.

Florida's 50th launch of 2025 had been planned to be a human spaceflight, but instead it ended up being another batch of Starlink satellites.

SpaceX states that its Falcon 9 rocket will send up Starlink 12-26 mission from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 11:21 a.m. ET. The launch window will open from 11:21 a.m. ET until 11:44 a.m. ET, meaning SpaceX has during that timeframe to launch its rocket.

The launch, using a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket to deliver the Starlink satellites, will take place from Launch Complex 4E from Vandenberg Space Force Base in Santa Barbara County, California.
