SpaceX今日下午开启范登堡发射窗口:猎鹰9号送27颗星链卫星,助推器迎来第20次飞行

加州圣巴巴拉县10月12日(周一)——据《今日美国》网络(USA TODAY Network)旗下Ventura County Star报道,SpaceX计划于今天下午从范登堡太空军基地(Vandenberg Space Force Base)发射猎鹰9号火箭,执行星链15-25(Starlink 15-25)任务。发射窗口为美西时间下午4时至8时,长达四小时,地点为该基地的4号东发射场(SLC-4E)。这将是9月19日以来西海岸首次星链发射,也是范登堡基地2026年的第69次火箭发射——该基地2025年全年发射71次,今年有望刷新纪录。
本次任务将把27颗星链宽带卫星送入近地轨道。执行任务的猎鹰9号一级助推器将迎来其第20次飞行;发射后,助推器计划降落在太平洋上的无人回收船「当然我依然爱你号」(Of Course I Still Love You)上,以便回收复用。火箭将沿东南方向飞行。SpaceX提醒,圣巴巴拉县、圣路易斯奥比斯波县与文图拉县居民可能听到助推器返航时产生的音爆。
天气预报方面,美国国家气象局预计圣巴巴拉县上午有阵雨,下午发射窗口时段天气转晴。据联邦航空管理局(FAA)运行计划提示,若今日发射推迟,次日仍有备用发射机会。SpaceX将在升空前约10分钟在公司网站开启直播。截至发稿,发射尚未升空,GSM将跟进结果。

SpaceX Opens Afternoon Launch Window at Vandenberg: Falcon 9 to Carry 27 Starlink Satellites on Booster's 20th Flight
SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, California, Monday, Oct. 12 — SpaceX is targeting an afternoon launch of a Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base, according to the Ventura County Star of the USA TODAY Network. The four-hour window runs from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. PT at Space Launch Complex 4-East (SLC-4E). It would be the first West Coast Starlink mission since Sept. 19 and Vandenberg's 69th rocket launch of 2026, putting the base on pace to pass the 71 launches recorded in all of 2025.
The mission, Starlink 15-25, is to deploy 27 Starlink broadband satellites into low-Earth orbit. The Falcon 9 first-stage booster will be flying for the 20th time and is planned to land on the drone ship Of Course I Still Love You in the Pacific Ocean for reuse. The rocket will fly a southeast trajectory, and residents of Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and Ventura counties may hear sonic booms as the booster returns.
The National Weather Service expects morning showers to give way to sunnier conditions around the launch window. A Federal Aviation Administration operations advisory points to a backup opportunity the next day if the attempt is postponed. SpaceX plans to stream the launch on its website starting about 10 minutes before liftoff. The launch had not yet taken place at publication time; GSM will follow up with the outcome.
