Live updates from the Starlink 6-83 mission, which launched at 1:02 a.m. on May 13 from Kennedy Space Center Pad 39A.

What time is liftoff? SpaceX will attempt to launch a batch of Starlink satellites from Vandenberg, California, on Mother’s Day weekend.

Weather permitting, SpaceX rocket launch from Florida’s Space Coast may be visible from Jacksonville and Daytona to Fort Pierce and West Palm Beach.

Starship ignited its Raptor engines Monday morning on a test stand near SpaceX's Starbase launch facility in South Texas. The engine ran for approximately 60 seconds, and SpaceX confirmed the test-firing in a post on X: "Starship completed a long duration six-engine static fire and is undergoing final preparations for the ninth flight test."

SpaceX can now launch Starship 25 times a year in South Texas, a change that Elon Musk's rocket company welcomes as communities in affected regions worry about potential destruction from the powerful vehicle.

NASA is considering launching rockets to Mars next year, a major shift in priorities that could boost the fortunes of Elon Musk’s space company and speed up the timeline for astronauts to reach the red planet.

The federal agency determined that more frequent launches at SpaceX's rocket site, Starbase, would have no significant impact on the local environment if the company takes the proper mitigation steps.
