The rocket launched from launch pad SLC-4E at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California on November 17.
The Falcon 9 launch successfully launched another batch of 20 mini-satellites into orbit to replenish the orbital constellation of the Starlink system’s global Internet coverage network. This was announced by the developer company SpaceX.
The rocket was launched from the SLC-4E launch pad at the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California on November 17. About an hour later, the satellites, which separated from the carrier’s second stage, entered orbit.
As part of the launch, the reusable first stage of the launch vehicle, used for the 20th time, made a controlled vertical landing on the offshore drone platform Of Course I Still Love You in the Pacific Ocean.
Let’s remember that on October 15, the Falcon launch vehicle launched two batches of 43 mini-satellites into orbit to replace the orbital constellation of the global Internet coverage network of the Starlink system.
SpaceX has previously announced ambitious plans to conduct around five unmanned Starship missions to Mars over the next two years.
