SpaceX is targeting Tuesday, November 22 for launch of the Eutelsat 10B mission to a geosynchronous transfer orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Liftoff is targeted for 9:57 p.m. ET (02:57 UTC on November 23).

The Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched Telstar 18 VANTAGE, Iridium-8, and eight Starlink missions.

A live webcast of this mission will begin about 15 minutes prior to liftoff.
Yeah, you're right - they're expending the booster on that one. It's kind of sad - that booster has flown 10 times before. I'm sure it makes the most sense to get rid of an old one, though.
