The 17th operational batch of Starlink satellites (18th overall) will lift off from LC-39A at the Kennedy Space Center, on a Falcon 9 rocket. In the weeks following deployment the Starlink satellites will use onboard ion thrusters to reach their operational altitude of 550 km. Falcon 9's first stage will attempt to land on a [...]
Starship SN9, equipped with three sea-level Raptor engines will attempt a high-altitude hop at SpaceX's development and launch site in Boca Chica, Texas. For this test, the vehicle will ascend to an altitude of approximately 10km (confirmed), before moving from a vertical orientation (as on ascent), to horizontal orientation, in which the broadside (+ z) [...]
There has been a lot of confusion about the upcoming #SpaceX #Starship SN9 launch so I thought we should spend a few minutes going over what it means to obtain FAA Approval, what the criteria is, why the FAA is involved along with a number of other questions surrounding the FAA Approval process for all [...]
On Thursday, January 28, 2021, SpaceX scrubbed their launch attempt in Boca Chica, TX for their Starship prototype named SN9, because the FAA reported refused to grant them approval to fly due to "outstanding safety issues". They are expected to attempt their test flight now on Friday, January 29th and hope to fly to an [...]
This is a launch to sun-synchronous polar orbit from Florida as part of SpaceX's Rideshare program dedicated to smallsat customers. The mission again makes use of the Eastern Range's recently reopened polar corridor launching southward with a dogleg maneuver. The mission will also include 10 Starlink satellites, the first to go to a polar orbit. [...]

SpaceX will launch the first of two next generation satellites on contract for Türksat. Türksat 5A is a Ku-band broadcast satellite built by Airbus Defense and Space and based on the Electric Orbit Raising version of the Eurostar E3000 platform. This spacecraft will be delivered into a transfer orbit and will then raise itself to [...]
SpaceX will launch an undisclosed payload into orbit for the National Reconnaissance Office aboard a Falcon 9. This launch was only recently confirmed by the NRO, and little is known about the mission except that the booster will return to land at Cape Canaveral's LZ-1 for an RTLS landing.#SpaceX #NROL108 #olhzlive❤❤ EXCLUSIVE CONTENT FOR MEMBERS [...]
