Starlink Spacecraft: SpaceX launches land rocket with 54 Starlink satellites into sea

Elon Musk-owned SpaceX has launched 54 more of its Starlink broadband satellites into orbit and a rocket on board a ship at sea on Saturday night.

Profound Space Organization told

 The two-stage Falcon 9 rocket, carrying 54 Starlink spacecraft, took off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida at 11:41 p.m. EDT on Saturday (Aug. 28 at 0341 GMT), according to the Profound Space Organization (Space.org)  Filled.

Let us tell you that it was about 80 minutes later than originally planned, as SpaceX waited for some bad weather to clear.

Less than nine minutes after launch, the first stage of the Falcon 9 came down to Earth to land on the SpaceX drone ship A Shortfall of Gravitas, which was stationed in the Atlantic Ocean off the Florida coast.

Later, the upper stage of the Falcon 9 launched the Starlink satellites into space, eventually putting all 54 of them into low Earth orbit, as was done approximately 15 minutes after takeoff.

Musk tweeted after the launch

 After this launch, Elon Musk tweeted from his official Twitter handle saying, 'Falcon 9 - at about 17 metric tons in real useful orbit with booster and fairing reusable!'

According to the report, the most recent launch for SpaceX was the 38th launch of 2022, surpassing the company's previous record.  This is the most orbital mission in a calendar year.  It was the 24th flight of the year that focused exclusively on Starlink, SpaceX's massive broadband constellation.
