April 3 (Upi) – SpaceX, who rose over a largely cloudy sky, started 27 Starlink Internet satellites in a small orbit on board a Falcon 9 rocket from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, shortly after 6 p.m. PDT on Thursday.
It is the 5th time that this first -class fuel booster cell was used to start a SpaceX rocket. The booster landed at relaxation. Of course, I still love them after they have separated from the payload section of the SpaceX craft, which turned its payload into the orbit with low earth in about 8 minutes after retreat.
It is SpaceX ’25. Mission from 2025.
The steady stream of Starlink satellite starts has been a bright spot for SpaceX in the past few months, as the other two top -class starship missions ended when both exploded. The 7th test flight of the Starship ended abruptly when it exploded on January 16 near the Turks and Caicos above the North Atlantic. SpaceX identified a grassper as the cause of this explosion.
Starship 8 hit a similar fate on March 6th when it dissolved off the Florida coast after it starts from SpaceX ‘Starbase in South Texas. This incident briefly exposed commercial air traffic at Orlando International Airport when the debris crossed the Atlantic.
The Starship program is used to bring simulations of SpaceX larger, heavier and more robust satellites to space in order to prepare for the company’s expansion in order to include more satellites for its commercial Internet constellation.
