Posted: Sun, Mar 6, 2022, 11:01 AM ET (1601 GMT)
SpaceX launched another set of Starlink satellites in a routine launch Thursday. The Falcon 9 lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 9:25 am EST (1425 GMT) and deployed 47 satellites into low Earth orbit a little more than an hour later. The rocket's first stage landed on a droneship, completing that booster's 11th mission. The launch keeps SpaceX on a pace of one launch a week this year.
