BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. – SpaceX is set to launch another Falcon 9 rocket from the Florida coast on Sunday.

The launch, a Starlink mission from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, is scheduled for 6:31 p.m.

Twenty-nine Starlink internet satellites will be deployed to low-Earth orbit while the first-stage booster being used for the mission attempts to land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship in the Atlantic Ocean, according to SpaceX.

The booster was previously used to launch Ax-2, Euclid, Ax-3, CRS-30, SES ASTRA 1P, NG-21, and 17 other Starlink missions, SpaceX said on its website.
