The May 30 launch window for the Falcon 9 rocket was between 7 a.m. and 11 a.m., with liftoff from Space Launch Complex 4 East at 8:25 a.m.
The first-stage booster supporting the mission has already been used 21 times, including on 18 Starlink missions.
The first-stage landed on a droneship in the Pacific Ocean following stage separation, so it can potentially be used again in the future.
