A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched 22 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 1:36 a.m. on 5 October 2023. Following stage separation, the first stage landed on the Just Read the Instructions droneship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

This is the eighth flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched CRS-26, OneWeb Launch 16, Intelsat IS-40e, and four Starlink missions.
