Another SpaceX launch was completed on Friday, with yet another Starlink mission completed successfully.
On Friday, March 24 at 11:33 a.m. ET, the company’s Falcon 9 rocket launched 56 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida.
This was the tenth launch and landing for this Falcon 9 first stage booster, which previously launched CRS-22, Crew-3, Turksat 5B, Crew-4, CRS-25, Eutelsat HOTBIRD 13G, mPOWER-a and now three Starlink missions.
The news comes after CEO Elon Musk announced some testing and issues with the company’s new V2 mini Starlink satellites, and after the said announcement of multi-billions in funding from Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi.
