Falcon nine has successfully lifted off from launch complex 39 a. at Kennedy Space Center carrying our stack of 49 starling satellites to orbit. Moments ago we throttle the engines down in preparation for max Q. Or maximum aerodynamic pressure, which will happen here in just a few seconds at T plus one minute and 12 seconds.

First, we’ll have main engine cut off, followed by stage separation and then second engine startup one. Now, first main engine cut off is where all nine of those M1D engines on that first stage will shut off to slow the vehicle down in preparation for stage separation. This is where the first, mm hmm.
