SpaceX successfully launches more satellites from Florida, California on Sunday
SpaceX successfully sent 23 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit atop a Falcon 9 rocket Sunday morning from Cape Canaveral.
The Falcon 9 rocket lifted off from Space Launch Complex 40 at 1:09 a.m. The Falcon 9 first stage booster successfully landed on the drone ship, A Shortfall of Gravitas, in the Atlantic Ocean about eight minutes after liftoff.
This was the 14th flight for the first-stage booster supporting this mission, and the 300th overall reflight of a Falcon 9 booster for the company.
SpaceX also launched another Falcon 9 rocket carrying 21 Starlink satellites from California several hours later. That rocket's first stage booster landed on a drone ship in the Pacific Ocean and has now flown 17 times.
These Sunday morning launches join Saturday morning's launch from Florida, which was the first in over two weeks. The FAA had grounded SpaceX's Falcon 9 rockets following an in-flight failure of a rocket during a California-based launch on July 11.
