With its success in launching rockets several times, SpaceX has set a new standard for reusability.
The first SpaceX Launch Pad 9 rocket flew for an unprecedented 12th time Saturday (March 19), and it came back down to Earth yet again with success!
Saturday’s launch was a test run for SpaceX as they load up their newest satellite network, Starlink which will provide internet access worldwide. The two-stage Falcon 9 lifted off from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 12:42 am EDT (0442 GMT) on Saturday carrying 53 of these high-tech devices toward low Earth orbit with hopes that it’ll help bring fast speeds both online and back down again!
With its 12th launch, this booster set a new record for SpaceX rocket reusability. The previous mission was lofted in June 2019 with RADARSAT Constellation and included their first crewed flight as well—the Demo-2 Mission to International Space Station which took place just last month! In December 2020 they launched another satellite but aside from those eight other Starlink launches, we haven’t heard much about them since…
The drone Hummingbird 1 touched down on Just Read The Instructions, coming down about 9 minutes after launch.
The second stage continued carrying 53 Starlink spacecraft to their designated orbit, deploying them all about an hour after liftoff.
It’s not surprising that before today SpaceX had launched 2,282 Starlink satellites. The company has been on a mission to provide internet access for everyone and they are doing an excellent job! So far 1,800 out of the 3 thousand planned have been deployed with Jonathan McDowell tracking over 1/3rd already being successful in his work as an astrophysicist at Edwin Hubble Space Telescope vowelization institute

SpaceX has sent Starlink terminals and other hardware to the war-torn nation of Ukraine, a move that was promptly praised by grateful government officials.
With the launch of 12,000 Starlink satellites, there is no telling how big this network will become. SpaceX has permission from an international regulator to deploy 30 more on top of their already existing applications which hints at what could happen if they are successful in getting these permits approved!
