SpaceX launches Falcon 9 rocket with 34 more Starlink satellites

Washington: SpaceX has successfully launched 34 additional Starlink satellites into orbit on a Falcon 9 rocket, the American spacecraft manufacturing company said.

The launch was carried out at 01:20 GMT on Sunday, from the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Florida, with a live podcast from SpaceX.
“Falcon 9’s first stage has landed on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship – completing SpaceX’s first 14th flight of a first stage booster,” SpaceX said on social media about half an hour after the launch.
The Falcon 9 rocket carried 34 Starlink satellites and AST SpaceMobile’s BlueWalker 3 satellite to orbit.
