Nineteen orbital rockets launched from Florida's Space Coast during January and February, accelerating the 2025 Eastern Range schedule to a record-breaking pace that would topple last year's record of 93 annual liftoffs.

"This is the first time that a rocket has taken off from one country, gone to space and landed in another country!" -- SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk.

A bright and cold Friday morning saw a SpaceX rocket lift off on the latest Starlink mission. At 10:19 a.m., the rocket lifted off from Cape Canaveral Space Launch Complex 40. The Falcon 9 was carrying 23 Starlink internet satellites, 13 which included direct to cell capabilities, as it rumbled on a southeast trajectory.

A Falcon 9 rocket is scheduled for liftoff Monday night from Florida’s Space Coast. SpaceX plans to launch the rocket carrying 21 Starlink satellites from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Those satellites — 13 with direct-to-cell capabilities — will be deployed into low-Earth orbit to help expand the company’s global internet network.

As it flies into the night sky, the rocket will travel southeast from the launch pad. When is the next Florida rocket launch? Is there a launch today? Upcoming SpaceX, NASA rocket
