A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched 24 Kuiper satellites to orbit on the KF-01 mission from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 2:30 a.m. on 16 July 2025. Following stage separation, Falcon 9's first stage landed on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

This is the first flight for the Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission.
