#Starlink 4-37 #Falcon9 launch: #SpaceX sent 54 satellites to orbit at 4:32pm (ET) Saturday.

The low cloud deck quickly obscured the rocket, but it was cool while it was visible, seen here in a 30-sec exposure from Cocoa Beach, Florida.

SpaceX sends 54 Starlink satellites to orbit from Launch Complex 39A at 4:32 p.m. today — the company’s third launch in just under 34 hours.

B1058 is now the Falcon fleet leader, having supported 15 orbital launches since its first launch for the Demo-2 mission in May 2020.

SpaceX Falcon9 Group 4-37 lifts off this afternoon. Booster B1058 doesn't like a day older than five flights to space, but this is its fifteenth, a record for #SpaceX.

Doug should be arriving at Port Canaveral in about an hour, hopefully carrying the fairing from Starlink 4-37.

ASOG should arrive back late tonight. JRTI should arrive daytime Wednesday.

Second booster of the day - JRTI droneship should reach Port Canaveral around 4pm today.

Exact arrival time may differ due to ship congestion (ASOG is occupying the booster unloading dock)
