"Falcon completes its 500th overall mission! Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team for making the impossible possible on the road to rapidly reusable rockets!"

SpaceX plans to launch a Falcon 9 on Friday with 23 Starlink satellites, including 13 with Direct to Cell capabilities, to low-Earth orbit. It'll happen at Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

SpaceX on Wednesday afternoon launched another batch of 27 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California on the 15th anniversary of the first Falcon 9 rocket launch.
