SpaceX carries out several Falcon 9 launches deploying Starlink satellites in 2026, with missions departing from both Vandenberg Space Force Base in California and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station (Space Launch Complex 40) in Florida. Across the reported flights, Starlink payloads are delivered to low Earth orbit using Falcon 9, typically as batches of 24 or 29 satellites.
From California, SpaceX launches at Vandenberg from pad 4E on missions described as adding 24 Starlink satellites to low Earth orbit. Separate reporting also describes a flight from Vandenberg on a different date carrying 24 Starlink satellites.
From Florida, SpaceX launches occur from Cape Canaveral’s Space Launch Complex 40, with missions described as deploying 29 Starlink satellites. Additional coverage notes that these missions are among many Falcon 9 launches scheduled in 2026, including highly frequent dedicated Starlink flights.
One report also frames a Falcon 9 booster as reaching a record-breaking number of flights, indicating the reused nature of at least one rocket used for these Starlink missions.
