Launch Pad Live – SpaceX Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy & Starship

Florida's Space Coast, centred on Cape Canaveral and NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Brevard County, is the busiest launch site in the United States. SpaceX's Falcon 9 rockets fly from here frequently, and Falcon Heavy launches from historic Launch Complex 39A, the pad that once sent Apollo missions to the Moon. Port Canaveral is where returning rocket boosters are brought back after landing on drone ships at sea.

What to watch

• Rockets on the pad and live launches
• Booster recovery operations at Port Canaveral
• Starship development and test flights at Starbase, Texas

Launch schedules change often due to weather and technical checks, so it's worth keeping the stream open during launch windows. Night launches can be especially spectacular. Starbase, near Boca Chica on the Texas Gulf Coast, is where SpaceX builds and tests its giant Starship. The stream is provided by Spaceflight Now.
