Added a bunch of upcoming SpaceX launches to NextSpaceflight and some booster assignments. https://nextspaceflight.com/launches/agency/upcoming/1/Starlink Group 4-19 looking like mid June (I'd bet on LC-39A for that one) and using B1060-13Starlink Group 4-20 by the end of the month (again betting on 39A but don't have confirmation on pads for none of these missions... well, except for the Vandy ones I guess lol)And then in July and sort of in this order:Starlink Group 3-1 from Vandenberg (betting on using B1063 for this one)Starlink Group 4-21 from Florida (I'd say pad 40 is likely) using B1058-13 Starlink Group 4-22 from Florida (likely to be 39A imo)Starlink Group 3-2 from Vandy (likely to use B1071 imo)Starlink Group 4-25 from Florida (betting all my money on pad 40 for this one) using B1051-13

F9/Starlink 4-25: 3 hours after launch of 46 Starlinks from Vandenberg SFB, SpaceX hauled another Falcon 9 from its hangar and up the slope to KSC pad 39A, setting the stage for launch Sunday, the company's 33rd so far this year
Launch July 24, 2022 13:38 UTC (9:38 am EDT), from Kennedy LC-39A, on booster 1062-8. First stage landing aboard Just Read the Instructions is expected.
SpaceX hoisted a Falcon 9 rocket upright at around 2 a.m. EDT (0600 GMT). The rocket is being readied for a Sunday morning launch from pad 39A with another batch of Starlink satellites. Watch live: youtu.be/ykjHh-4cMO4
SpaceX has test-fired a Falcon 9 rocket on pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center in preparation for launch tomorrow at 9:38am EDT (1338 GMT) with the next batch of Starlink internet satellites. spaceflightnow.com/2022/07/23/sta…

Now I know why.
Perhaps this is related to the abort/scrub/fail/omg thing that delayed the Vandenburg flight for a day. Something they swapped out maybe.
Targeting Sunday, July 24 for a Falcon 9 launch of 53 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from LC-39A in Florida → https://www.spacex.com/launches/sl4-25/
SpaceX is targeting Sunday, July 24 for a Falcon 9 launch of 53 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The instantaneous launch window is at 9:38 a.m. ET (13:38 UTC), and a backup opportunity is available on Monday, July 25 at 9:16 a.m. ET (13:16 UTC).The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched GPS III Space Vehicle 04, GPS III Space Vehicle 05, Inspiration4, Ax-1, Nilesat 301, and two Starlink missions. Following stage separation, Falcon 9’s first stage will return to Earth and land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.A live webcast of this mission will begin about five minutes prior to liftoff.

Here is a comparison of the webcast telemetry from Starlink missions 4-22 and 4-25.The differences are slight, so I'm still trying to refine the display format for maximum readability. I've made the earlier mission lines thin, and the current mission lines thicker, but I'm open to suggestions for alternatives or improvements.
Dotted vs Solid?
Doug and ASOG are slowly trudging into port. Really slowed down now @SpaceOffshore

What is it like capturing a booster return? Here is a 2000% sped-up clip of a 25 minute flight capturing B1062 returning on ASOG in July. The footage is still colorless, due to it being shot in LOG color from the camera, something that is very helpful on bright mornings like this
