Starlink Group 6-17 launch out of SLC-40 in Florida currently scheduled for 2023-09-20 03:38 UTC, or 2023-09-19 23:38 local time (EDT). Booster ~~1060~~ 1058 to land on A Shortfall of Gravitas.
This will be a "life leader" mission, as it marks the first time a Falcon 9 booster will fly for it's 17th flight.
