SpaceX is targeting Friday, December 20 for Falcon 9’s launch of the Astranis: From One to Many mission to a geosynchronous transfer orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The 229-minute window opens at 10:39 p.m. ET. If needed, a backup opportunity is available on Sunday, December 22 during a 129-minute window that opens at 12:00 a.m. ET.

A live webcast of this mission will begin about 15 minutes prior to liftoff, which you can watch here and on X @SpaceX. You can also watch the webcast on the new X TV app.

This will be the 17th flight for the Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Crew-5, GPS III Space Vehicle 06, Inmarsat I6-F2, CRS-28, NG-20, TD-7, and nine Starlink missions. After stage separation, the first stage will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

They seem to have drawn the wrong interstage?

They have been doing that with their patches since the Korea 425 mission last year.
