Oct 05 02:06T+plus 1 hour, 30 minutes. Our official liftoff time was 5:36:00.244 p.m. EDT (2136:00.244 UTC), right at the opening of the window on the first launch attempt.
SpaceX is targeting Wednesday, October 5 for a Falcon 9 launch of 52 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The instantaneous launch window is at 4:10 p.m. PT (23:10 UTC).The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched NROL-87, NROL-85, SARah-1, and one Starlink mission. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship, which will be stationed in the Pacific Ocean.
T.S. Kelso @TSKelsoThe next launch opportunity for #Starlink Group 4-29 is now set for 2022-10-05 at 23:10:30 UTC with deployment on 2022-10-06 at 00:13:01.520 UTC. Pre-launch SupGP data on CelesTrak has been updated to reflect this change.

[Falcon Heavy] is finally set to fly again as soon as Oct. 28 from Kennedy Space Center in Florida on a long-delayed national security mission for the U.S. Space Force [USSF-44], a military spokesperson said.<snip>The launch is expected to occur in daylight in the morning hours, but the Space Force has not officially released the launch time for the USSF-44 mission, the fourth flight of a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket and the first since June 2019.The long gap between Falcon Heavy launches has been caused by payload delays. The USSF-44 mission was originally scheduled to launch in late 2020, but has been nearly two years by issues with the Space Force payload assigned to fly on the rocket. A military spokesperson told Spaceflight Now the USSF-44 payload issues are now resolved, without offering additional details.
SFN, After a three-year wait, SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy could launch again later this month, October 5QuoteTom Ochinero, SpaceX’s vice president of commercial sales, said last month the company plans six Falcon Heavy missions over the next 12 months, among a busy schedule of Falcon 9 missions flying at an average rate of more than once per week. [USSF-44 is the first of six.]<snip>Viasat said last week that its first of three Viasat 3-series internet broadband satellites, booked to launch on a Falcon Heavy toward geosynchronous orbit, is scheduled to lift off before the end of the year. But industry sources said the first Viasat 3 launch, already delayed by supply chain issues that affected satellite and payload manufacturing, could delay into early 2023.<snip>The Space Force said its USSF-67 mission, which the military says will launch into geosynchronous orbit like USSF-44, is currently scheduled for January.<snip>Another Space Force satellite delivery mission booked on a Falcon Heavy, codenamed USSF-52, is now planned to launch in the second quarter of 2023 — between April 1 and June 30.<snip>The other Falcon Heavy missions slated for launch in the next 12 months include the heavyweight Jupiter 3 commercial broadband satellite for EchoStar and Hughes Network Systems later in 2023.[Psyche pending July 2023]<snip>SpaceX now has a backlog of up to 13 Falcon Heavy rocket missions.<snip>

launch delayed to Q1/2023Quote...While the SpaceX F9 launcher for SES-22 was available in June 2022, the F9 launcher for SES-18 and SES-19 will not be available before January 2023 due to the delays from the original Northrop Grumman delivery and priority of US government launches. Assuming the current Northrop Grumman delivery schedule for SES-18 and SES-19 is maintained, SES expects SES-18 and SES-19 to start commercial service by April 2023. ...As described above, the Northrop Grumman satellites, SES-18 and SES-19, have experienced manufacturing delays. Since our last report, we have also been informed by SpaceX that the earliest available launch opportunity for SES-18 and SES-19 is Q1 2023 as a result of higher priority US government launches scheduled for Q4 2022. Because of these delays, which are beyond SES’s control, there is a significant risk SES-18 and SES-19 will not be commercially available until the beginning of Q2 2023....Construction by Thales of the second ground spare, SES-23, began on June 1, 2021 and is expected to be delivered in March 2023. Subject to the successful launch and deployment of all necessary C-band transition satellites, SES-23 may become unused....The Northrop Grumman SES-18 and SES-19 satellites are expected to be launched in Q1 2023; however the launch slot week is still to be confirmed by SpaceX. The launcher for SES-23 has not been contracted.
