!! - Tomorrow Monday Sept 28 at 8:15 am EST Starship will be launching from Texas. Starship’s first orbital mission is expected to fly at an altitude approximately 275 km, 178 miles, above Earth and complete approximately six orbits around the planet over the course of a nearly 10-hour flight with splashdown targeted in the Pacific Ocean to the west of Chile. This is the first early morning launch since flight 5 and the first time Starship will orbit the earth. The flight will take 10 hours providing all goes well. Watch the deployment of 26 Starlink satellites 34 minutes into flight. There is a pre launch and flight timeline
HERE. The 10 hour test flight will be covered by SpaceX and NASAspaceflight (NSF)
If all goes well with this test flight SpaceX is looking to catch both booster and ship on flight 15
SpaceX - Coverage starts 7:45 am EST. As usual coverage will be in and out as milestones hit
NSF - Coverage/commentary starts 4:15 am EST. NSF is suppose suppose to cover the entire flight pre launch to splashdown
