Less than one hour to tonight's Falcon 9 launch of @Starlink from Florida. Teams are keeping an eye on winds, but otherwise looking good to step into propellant load

Launch team now targeting the end of tonight's window to allow recovery assets to get into final position. Counting down now to launch at 10:37 p.m. ET.

Starlink deployment confirmed: https://x.com/SpaceX/status/1796749258076664271

Deploy of 23 @Starlink satellites confirmed

This mission also set a new record for the shortest time between landings on a droneship: https://x.com/TurkeyBeaver/status/1796736037739270432

This landing is special because the recovery team just chattered our fastest ever landing to landing turn. Roughly 84 hours between two booster touchdowns on ASOG. It traveled roughly 640 nautical miles in that time with only 3.5 hrs at the dock to drop off a rocket.

Unreal!!! Well done recovery team!!!

The previous record was 102 hours.
