SpaceX targets Monday night for Falcon 9 USSF-627 from Vandenberg Space Force Base
SpaceX is targeting Monday, Nov. 9, for a Falcon 9 launch of the USSF-627 mission from Space Launch Complex 4E at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, with a four-hour window opening at 7:03 p.m. PT (9:03 p.m. CT) and a backup opportunity Tuesday, Nov. 10, at 6:49 p.m. PT, the company said. SpaceX said this will be the seventh flight for the first-stage booster, which previously launched NROL-179, SDA-T1TL-E, SDA-T1TL-A and three Starlink missions, and that after stage separation the booster will land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship in the Pacific Ocean. A live webcast is set to begin about 10 minutes before liftoff on SpaceX's site and on X at @SpaceX; the company said residents of Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and Ventura counties may hear one or more sonic booms, depending on weather and other conditions.
