Watch live: SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launches from Cape Canaveral with 23 Starlink satellites

Watch live coverage as SpaceX launches a Falcon 9 rocket with 23 second-generation satellites for Elon Musk's Starlink internet service. Liftoff from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is scheduled for 10:35 p.m. EDT (0235 UTC) on Wednesday, May 22. The first-stage booster making its 8th flight will land on SpaceX's drone ship 'A Shortfall of Gravitas', stationed in the Atlantic Ocean, about eight and a half minutes after leaving the launch pad.
The mission, designated Starlink 6-62, will be the 37th launch of Starlink satellites this year and the 53rd flight of a Falcon 9 rocket in 2024
Commentary will be provided by Spaceflight Now's Will Robinson-Smith, starting approximately an hour prior to liftoff.

[@erikas.9319]

What time? I was wondering if I saw this too in the city.

[@FFTV-IdiotsAtWork]

I patiently watched this entire video 😁

[@Starpopper800]

Jeez, can’t you guys shut up for 1-minute and let us enjoy the engine roar⁉

[@johnvogel641]

Amazing way to go Spacex

[@jjbud3124]

I'm in Palm Beach County. Watched the entire launch - clear skies. Not as spectacular as the one the other night though. (They should do every launch just after dark). Looking straight down my street to the east I can also see the stage 1 entry burn.

[@Killercoldice22]

[@55hogan]

Why is every launch interrupted with a stupid commercial about 20 seconds into launch????🤬

[@jjbud3124]

Because you don't have a Premium subscription.

[@christopherjones534]

Thanks!

I believe I saw the rocket in Colorado around 10:06pm.

[@jjbud3124]

It was launched at 10:35 Eastern time - 8:35 your time. I have no idea whether the rockets would still be firing over your area.

Hey Elon. How's it going. I know we don't know each other very well but, I was wondering, when the poles flip can I come hang with you for a while 😉
