SpaceX will be launching 60 of their Starlink satellites on top of their work-horse Falcon 9 rocket. The Falcon 9 will launch from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, in Florida. The booster supporting this mission (B1049.4) flew on Telstar 18 Vintage on September 10th, 2018, Iridium-NEXT 8 on January 11th, 2019, and Starlink .9 on May 24th, 2019. This booster is going to be recovered on SpaceX’s Autonomous Spaceport Droneship (ASDS), Of Course I Still Love You. The ASDS will be located over 629km downrange. SpaceX will attempt to recover one of the fairing halves with Go MS Tree. They will fetch the other half out of the water.
