SpaceX is targeting no earlier than Tuesday, April 11 at 11:48 p.m. PT (06:48 UTC on April 12) for Falcon 9's launch of the Transporter-7 mission to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, DART, and seven Starlink missions. Following stage separation, Falcon 9 will land on Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4) at Vandenberg Space Force Base. Transporter-7 is SpaceX's seventh dedicated smallsat rideshare mission. There will be 50 payloads on this flight, including CubeSats, MicroSats, hosted payloads, and orbital transfer vehicles carrying spacecraft to be deployed at a later time...
