Overview

  • The Vandenberg mission is set for June 28 with a backup on June 29 from Launch Complex 4E, and viewers in Arizona from Phoenix to Waddell can watch a live webcast starting five minutes before liftoff.
  • The Cape Canaveral Starlink 10-34 flight will lift off at 12:26 a.m. EDT on June 28, opening a four-hour window to deploy 27 V2 Mini satellites into low-Earth orbit.
  • Falcon 9 first stage booster B1092, on its fifth flight, will target a landing on the droneship A Shortfall of Gravitas about eight minutes after liftoff.
  • The 45th Weather Squadron has forecast a 60 percent chance of favorable weather at the start of the East Coast launch window, with conditions expected to improve later in the morning.
  • These back-to-back launches follow a cadence that added over 1,400 Starlink V2 Mini satellites in 2025, bringing the constellation past 7,700 broadband units worldwide.
