SpaceX launches Starlink
SpaceX aborted the launch of 23 Starlink satellites just 46 seconds before liftoff on August 11, 2024, from NASA's Kennedy Space Center. The company plans to reschedule the attempt for August 12, following a successful launch of 21 Starlink satellites the previous day. The Falcon 9 rocket remains in good condition, and if successful, the first stage booster will land on a drone ship approximately eight minutes post-launch. This recent activity is part of a record-breaking year for SpaceX, which achieved 67 launches by June 2024 and is expected to surpass 135 by year-end. SpaceX's commitment to technological innovation continues to enhance its operational efficiency and global broadband coverage, specifically through its Starlink network. Additionally, a separate Falcon 9 launch is planned from Vandenberg Space Force Base for the Arctic Satellite Broadband Mission on August 12.
