No clear answer has emerged, since there have been no really close landings to see how fast they can do the work. The date for the next launch attempt hasnt been released yet, but it will take at least two days to empty the fuel, fix the faulty valve and get Starship ready. Once the stage is off the barge, they need to refuel the Thrustmasters, unweld and clean up the brackets they used to hold the stage down. Updates from Tuesdays event below: The Falcon 9 has landed 10:05 a.m.: The first-stage Falcon 9 booster has successfully landed. They need to remove the stage from the barge, which has happened within the first day most of the time now that it has become more regular. From: List of Falcon 9 first-stage boosters - Wikipedia B1021 flew once to launch CRS-8, and then again to launch SES-10 B1021 and B1023 dont count because. A Falcon 9 carrying 53 of SpaceXs Starlink internet. The real interesting question is how much work is required to get the barge ready to head back out.

It was the record-breaking 16th launch for this rocket's. The folk on forums usually track (Via the AIS system, land based is free, satellite data you have to pay for) and predict when the returning barge should come in sight of the various web cams. A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launches 22 Starlink 'V2 Mini' satellites from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida on July 9, 2023.
The towing ships are different on each coast, and have different capabilities.
The ASDS Barges do not have engines for travelling, rather the Thrustmasters at each corner are used almost exclusively for station keeping as the booster is coming in for a landing. Towing speed is usually around 5-8 knots. SpaceX spends months evaluating, refurbishing, and testing the first stage of their Falcon 9 launch vehicles prior to reuse.
