OneWeb will launch 40 satellites with @SpaceX no earlier than Sunday 8 January, from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.Find out more about the launch on our website at the link below, and follow us for further updates.#OneWebLaunch16 🚀
UPDATE: OneWeb to launch 40 satellites with SpaceX to enable continued expansion of connectivity services across the US, southern Europe, Australia, Middle East and more**MEDIA ADVISORY***What: OneWeb, the low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite communications company, will launch 40 satellites with SpaceX no earlier than Sunday, 8 January 2023, from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. This launch will be OneWeb’s sixteenth to date and its second with SpaceX following a successful launch in December, keeping the company on track to deliver global coverage in 2023.Why:This launch will add another 40 satellites to OneWeb’s LEO satellite fleet, over 80% of its first-generation constellation that will deliver global wholesale connectivity for its partners. This milestone mission marks OneWeb’s second time launching from Florida, where its satellites are also produced by OneWeb Satellites – a joint venture between OneWeb and Airbus. The launch will enable the company to continue expanding services around the world as it grows its fleet and seeks to initiate services for more partners across the US, southern Europe, Australia and more. OneWeb’s connectivity solutions are already active in Alaska, Canada, the UK, Greenland and wider Arctic area, providing internet connectivity to unserved and underserved rural and remote communities and businesses.When:The launch is scheduled to take place no earlier than 8 January 2023 at 11:55 p.m. ET / 9 January 2023 at 4:55am UTC.Where:The vehicle will lift off from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.How to watch:Livestream available on SpaceX website and social media channels.
What's the total launch mass?
All systems and weather are looking good this weekend for our second launch for @OneWeb
Should also be the final flight for B1076 before conversion for EchoStar XXIV

launch of the OneWeb Launch 16 mission to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Liftoff is targeted for 11:55 p.m. ET (04:55 UTC on January 9), and a backup opportunity is available on Monday, January 9 at 11:50 p.m. ET (04:50 UTC on January 10).The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched CRS-26 Following stage separation, the first stage will land on Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.A live webcast of this mission will begin about 15 minutes prior to liftoff.
Doug departed Port Canaveral yesterday evening and is zooming south towards Cuba to recover the fairing for the next OneWeb mission.Booster will land at LZ-1.
To complete pre-launch processing, now targeting Monday, January 9 at 11:50 p.m. ET for launch of the @OneWeb Launch 16 mission from SLC-40. Vehicle and spacecraft are healthy, and weather is >90% favorable for liftoff
