SpaceX Successfully Launches Falcon 9 Rockets
SpaceX successfully launched two Falcon 9 rockets early Saturday morning from California and Florida, just days after receiving FAA approval to resume flights following a landing anomaly. The first launch occurred at 1:48 a.m. from Vandenberg Space Force Base, delivering 21 Starlink satellites, while the second launched at 12:43 a.m. from Cape Canaveral, sending another 21 satellites into orbit. Both rockets had their first-stage boosters successfully return to droneships in the ocean. SpaceX's rapid return to flight demonstrates the company's operational resilience and commitment to expanding its Starlink satellite constellation, which aims to enhance global internet access. The launches occurred within 66 minutes of each other, marking a significant achievement in SpaceX's launch cadence. This also follows the company's ongoing development of its Starship rocket, which is slated for future crewed missions to the Moon and beyond.
