SpaceX Successfully Launches 22 Starlink Satellites from California

29 January 2024

SpaceX has achieved another successful launch as it deployed 22 Starlink satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The Falcon 9 rocket lifted off on January 23 after facing several weather-related delays. This launch brings the total number of operational Starlink satellites to over 5,250, further expanding SpaceX’s broadband megaconstellation. The Falcon 9’s first stage made a successful landing on the drone ship Of Course I Still Love You, marking its 16th landing. The deployment of the satellites into low Earth orbit will contribute to the global internet coverage provided by Starlink.
