BlueWalker 3 will be launched on 2022-09-07 with a Falcon 9 Block 5, together with Starlink Group 4-2, from Kennedy Space Center LC 39A (so not from Cape Canaveral) into a 400 km, 53.2 degrees inclination orbit. The first stage booster will land on the ASDS drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean. Launch time tbd.
