Boca Chica Beach and Highway 4 are scheduled to close that day, from 11:59 p.m.. Transporter and Bandwagon are SpaceX's rideshare missions: one rocket splitting its payload bay among many small satellites from different customers.

Starlink is SpaceX's satellite internet constellation. It is the payload on most Falcon 9 launches, which is why those flights come in such steady batches.

Falcon Heavy is three Falcon 9 first stages strapped together, used for the heaviest payloads SpaceX flies. It launches rarely, a few times a year at most.

Dragon is the capsule that carries cargo and astronauts to the International Space Station, currently the only US vehicle flying crew there.

Falcon 9 is the workhorse: a partly reusable two-stage rocket that flies most weeks from Florida and California, and the vehicle Starship is eventually meant to replace.

Crew and cargo runs to the International Space Station are the flights with people or perishable science aboard, which is why their schedules slip far less than test flights do.

Classified launches fly with the payload details withheld and the webcast usually cut after the first stage separates, so coverage of them is thin by design.

Starbase is wedged between a state park and a national wildlife refuge, so SpaceX expanding its footprint there means land swaps and beach access fights, not just construction.

Vandenberg is the California launch site SpaceX uses for polar and sun-synchronous orbits, the trajectories Florida cannot reach safely.

Military launch contracts are the steadiest money in the business, awarded in blocks years ahead, and they are a large part of what funds development work like Starship.

Surviving reentry is the hard part of reusing the upper stage: it comes back through plasma hot enough to strip the ceramic tiles that protect the hull.

Starlink is SpaceX's satellite internet constellation. It is the payload on most Falcon 9 launches, which is why those flights come in such steady batches.

Starship is the fully reusable rocket SpaceX builds and flies at Starbase: the Super Heavy booster plus the Starship upper stage, stacked about 400 feet tall.

Starbase flights are gated by federal and county sign-off: the FAA licenses the launch, and Cameron County posts the Highway 4 and beach closures that go with it.

Financial coverage of SpaceX matters here for one reason: launch and Starlink revenue is what pays for the Starship program being tested at Starbase.

SpaceX flies from two Florida pads, SLC-40 at Cape Canaveral and LC-39A at Kennedy. Neither is Starbase, though a Starship pad at 39A is in work.
