Key Highlights :
     SpaceX is set to launch a new batch of Starlink satellites on Sunday (June 4), and you can watch the action live. A Falcon 9 rocket will launch 22 of SpaceX’s new "V2 Mini" internet satellites for its Starlink communications constellation Sunday from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Launch is scheduled for 5:56 a.m. EDT (0956 GMT) .
     SpaceX will aim to recover the Falcon 9 first stage booster by landing it on the drone ship named A Shortfall of Gravitas out in the Atlantic Ocean. You can watch the action live here at Space.com when the time comes courtesy of SpaceX, or directly via the company. SpaceX's webcast will begin about 20 minutes before liftoff. There is a 50% chance of good weather for the launch.
     This mission was delayed from its original launch date of May 30. It follows the launch of 52 Starlink satellites on May 30 and will be followed, if all goes according to plan, by the launch Sunday (June 4) of a SpaceX Dragon capsule on a robotic resupply mission to the International Space Station.
     The new V2 Mini satellites provide greater broadband capacity than the earlier versions of Starlink satellites, and are fitted out with Hall thruster electric propulsion systems, which provide more than twice the amount of thrust compared to those used on older iterations.
     SpaceX currently has over 4,000 Starlink satellites in orbit, and the company has regulatory approval to launch up to 12,000 more. SpaceX is, however, applying for permission to add 30,000 more satellites to the project.
     The Falcon 9 rocket is SpaceX’s workhorse rocket, and has been used for a variety of missions, including sending astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS) and launching a variety of satellites. It has also been used to launch the company’s Dragon spacecraft, which is used to carry cargo and astronauts to the ISS.
     The launch of the V2 Mini satellites is part of SpaceX’s effort to create a global internet network. The company is also working on developing a ground network of antennas that will receive signals from the satellites and transmit them to users on the ground.
     The launch of the V2 Mini satellites is a milestone for SpaceX, and it will be interesting to see how the launch goes. Be sure to tune in to the live webcast on Sunday morning to watch the launch.
