ever."* With 5.1 million pounds of thrust at lift-off – much more than any
other operational rocket – the Falcon will take off from NASA's Kennedy
Space Center in Florida during a four-hour launch window that opens at
11:30 p.m. EDT. Minutes after takeoff, the rocket's side boosters will
return to Cape Canaveral and, shortly after, the center booster will land
on SpaceX’s offshore drone ship "Of Course I Still Love You," some 770
miles (1,240 km) east of Cape Canaveral. After reaching space, the *rocket's
second stage will burn four times to **place the 24 satellites into
three **different
orbits*. The rocket will also transport the remains of 152 people
