SpaceX Starlink Group 6-46 Launch

SpaceX plans to launch 23 Starlink V2 mini satellites into the Generation 2 Group 6 shell on 2024-03-25 at 23:42 UTC with a less than 1.5 hour launch window (due to an apparent slip from the original opening of the window at 21:00). It will launch from Launch Complex 40 (LC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

The first stage booster, B1078, will be making its eighth flight, after a turnaround time of 40 days since its last mission. The operational orbit will be 530 km circular at 43°. Booster recovery will likely be attempted on the droneship A Shortfall of Gravitas .

Eventually, Everyday Astronaut will post a page for the launch. So will SpaceX.

Recently, booster assignment has not been announced until the last minute and I’m just guessing regarding the likely droneship.
