More than a dozen flight tests and years of development, with countless hours worked by SpaceX engineers and technicians, all come down to this: the first orbital Starship launch carrying advanced Starlink satellites bound for space. Watch “Go For Orbit” and experience the moments behind flying the most ambitious Starship mission yet

Space jellyfish alert! The Bandwagon-5 rocket launch from Florida on October 20, 2026 at 7:04 AM EDT could produce a space jellyfish. This occurs when a rocket and its expanding exhaust plumes are illuminated by the sun and observers are in local darkness. NOTE: This rare and unique trajectory is modeled as a best-guess estimate. This prediction may be inaccurate for distant viewers. The rocket will enter sunlight 01m34s after launch.
