SpaceX ended January with and began February with two Starlink missions. These launches occurred two days apart from separate launch sites.
The first such mission — Starlink Group 2-6 — lifted off from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, on Tuesday, Jan. 31 at 8:15 AM PST (16:15 UTC) after a delay from Monday “to allow additional time for pre-launch checkouts.” This will be followed by the Starlink Group 5-3 mission, launched from the historic Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, on Thursday, Feb. 2 at 2:58 AM EST (07:58 UTC).
