Monday, 05 August 2024 15:49SpaceX knocks out company's 50th Space Coast launch of the year
Monday, 05 August 2024 15:10SpaceX shot up three Falcon 9 rockets from three launch pads last weekend once the Federal Aviation Administration gave its grounded rocket the OK to return to flight. Now it's set to go another round.
First up was a Falcon 9 launch of 23 more Starlink satellites from Kennedy Space Center's Launch Pad 39-A at 1:01 a.m. on what was SpaceX's 50th launch from the Space Coast for 2024.
The first-stage booster for the mission made its 12th flight with another recovery landing downrange in the Atlantic Ocean on board the droneship A Shortfall of Gravitas.
The launch was the 54th from all launch providers on the Space Coast with United Launch Alliance responsible for the other four.
The workhorse Falcon 9 has been tapped for 49 of SpaceX's 50 launches, while the year has had one lone Falcon Heavy liftoff so far.
SpaceX's record pace was slowed for a couple of weeks in July after an issue with the Falcon 9's upper stage during a launch from California that was tracked to a liquid oxygen leak blamed on a sense line connected to a supply tank.
