Another batch of Starlink Wireless Internet satellite is in orbit after a full moonspace start from Florida.
A SpaceX Falcon 9 Rocket started on Saturday evening (April 12th) the Starlink 12-17 Mission from the Kennedy Space Center of NASA (KSC).
The Falcon 9 was lifted at 8:53 p.m. EDT (0053 on April 13) from KSC’s historical start complex-39a and a stack of 21 Starlink satellites in the direction of Low Earth Umberahn (with a stack of 21 Starlink satellites (towards Low Earth Orbit) (in the direction of Low Earth-Umerbahn.LION).
The Falcon 9 is located shortly after its touchdown on April 12, 2025 on the deck of a drone ship at sea: SpaceX
Booster 1083 missions
Crew-8 | Polaris Dawn | CRS-31 | Astranis: From one to many | IM-2 | 4 Starlink missions
The first stage of Falcon 9, a booster called B1083, closed its nine Merlin engines and separated in the upper stage of the rocket in about 2.5 minutes.
About six minutes later, B1083 conducted a landing burn to take a lack of Gravitas droneship that was stationed in the Atlantic.
The upper stage of the rocket continued its climb in Leo with its 21 payloads. Thirteen of these satellites are equipped with SpaceX’s DirectX -to -Cell technology, which should help to eliminate mobile dead zones for mobile devices around the world. In the United States, SpaceX has worked with T-Mobile to give these skills for customers.
About an hour after the flight, the Starlink satellites were released to maneuver individually in more specific orbits to connect SpaceX’s growing mega art.

The Starlink network from SpaceX currently consists of more than 7,000 satellites that work in a grid that almost covers the entire planet, apart from the polar regions. Starlink offers its users a low, high-speed high-speed internet from any place where you can get a satellite signal, the network increasing every week.
The start on Saturday was SpaceX’s 42nd Falcon 9 mission from 2025. 28 of which started batches of Starlink satellites to join the constellation.
