The Starlink 6-75 mission launched at 9:51 p.m. on May 1 from Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 40, sending 28 Starlink internet satellites to orbit. Starlink provides internet to some of the most remote places on Earth, including remote communities within the United States.

Tonight's launch marked the first-ever liftoff for this particular Falcon 9's first stage. That's a rarity for SpaceX, which is known for its rocket reuse; one of the company's Falcon 9 boosters has 27 flights under its belt.

The Starlink 12-23 mission lifted off into the night from Cape Canaveral SLC-40. Onboard were 23 Starlink satellites.
