SpaceX performs two Starlink launches
Posted: Fri, Jul 29, 2022, 6:53 PM ET (2253 GMT)
SpaceX launched two sets of Starlink launches less than 48 hours apart. One Falcon 9 launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California at 1:39 pm EDT (1739 GMT) July 22, placing 46 Starlink satellites into a polar orbit. That launch was scrubbed a day earlier for what SpaceX said was a sensor reading that was out of limits. Another Falcon 9 lifted off from Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 9:38 am EDT (1338 GMT) July 24, delivering 53 Starlink satellites to orbit. SpaceX has now conducted 33 launches so far this year, breaking its record of most launches in a year of 31 set last year.
