SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launches 28 Starlink satellites

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched for the 29th time on Tuesday, carrying 28 Starlink satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.

The rocket’s first stage, Booster B1071, successfully landed on the drone ship Of Course I Still Love You about 8.5 minutes after liftoff, just shy of SpaceX’s reuse record of 30 flights.

The upper stage deployed the satellites into low Earth orbit about 60 minutes after launch.

This marked the 127th Falcon 9 flight of the year, with over 70% of missions focused on expanding the Starlink network, Space.com has reported.

Currently, more than 8,500 operational Starlink satellites orbit Earth, with additional launches ongoing.
