Liftoff is targeted for 5:07 p.m. EDT, 2107 UTC, 2307 CEST, with backup opportunities available until 8:19 p.m. EDT.

This is the 16th flight for the first-stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched SES-22, ispace's HAKUTO-R MISSION 1, Amazonas-6, CRS-27, Bandwagon-1, and 10 Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Just Read the Instructions droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

As always for Starlink launches, expect changes in T-Zero during the open launch window
