Cape Canaveral, FL – SpaceX capped off August with a successful Starlink launch on Sunday morning, deploying 28 Starlink V2 Mini satellites into low Earth orbit. The mission, dubbed Starlink 10-14, lifted off from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 7:49 a.m. EDT, marking SpaceX’s ninth Starlink launch this month alone.

The Falcon 9 rocket’s first stage booster, B1077, made its 23rd journey to space and back, successfully landing on the drone ship “Just Read the Instructions” in the Atlantic Ocean. This marked the 134th drone ship landing and the 497th booster landing for SpaceX to date.

With this launch, SpaceX has now deployed over 1,900 Starlink V2 Mini satellites across 77 Falcon 9 missions in 2025. According to SpaceX, roughly two-thirds of all operational satellites in orbit are Starlinks. The company boasts a production rate of 70 satellites per week at its Redmond, Washington facilities.

This continued expansion comes as SpaceX’s Starlink broadband internet service has reached 7 million customers across 150 countries, territories, and smaller markets – a significant increase of 3 million customers since September 2024.
