Depending on weather and clouds, rocket launches from Kennedy Space Center or Cape Canaveral can be seen from Daytona Beach to Melbourne to Vero Beach

A Falcon 9 rocket on the Starlink 12-9 mission carrying 21 Starlink satellites is aiming for liftoff at 1:52 p.m. from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station’s Space Launch Complex 40 during a launch window that runs through 5:37 p.m. Backup windows are available on Saturday beginning at 1:23 p.m.

With the payload being in the Group 12 Starlink satellites, the rocket will travel on a southeast trajectory. Those south of Cape Canaveral should get an afternoon show, as the Falcon 9 rocket rumbles by. The Space Force's 45th Weather Squadron has predicted a 95% chance of favorable conditions for this launch window.

Keep an eye to the sky on Monday if you want a chance to see the next rocket launch from Florida’s Space Coast.

Will the 2025 launch total set another new record? Stay tuned. Crews at NASA's Kennedy Space Center and neighboring Cape Canaveral Space Force Station are gearing up for a busy February, primarily comprised of SpaceX Starlink internet satellite missions and the NASA-SpaceX Intuitive Machines moon lander mission.
