Liftoff from pad 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is scheduled during a launch window that opens at 5:12 a.m. EDT (0912 UTC) on Friday, Apr. 5. The firststage booster will land on SpaceX's drone ship 'A Shortfall of Gravitas', stationed in the Atlantic Ocean, about eight and a half minutes into the flight.

The mission, designated Starlink 647, will be the 22nd launch of Starlink satellites this year and the 33rd flight of a Falcon 9 rocket.
