SpaceX has launched yet another batch of its Starlink internet satellites to the final frontier.<\/p>\n

A Falcon 9<\/u><\/a> rocket lifted off from California’s foggy Vandenberg Space Force Base<\/u><\/a> today (Aug. 4) at 1:05 p.m. EDT (1705 GMT; 10:05 a.m. local time), carrying 24 of the broadband spacecraft toward low Earth orbit<\/u><\/a> (LEO).<\/p>\n

It was the 90th Falcon 9 liftoff of the year and the 70th of 2026 devoted to building out the Starlink<\/u><\/a> megaconstellation.<\/p>\n

The rocket’s first stage came back to Earth<\/u><\/a> as planned about 8.5 minutes after launch, touching down on the SpaceX<\/u><\/a> droneship “Of Course I Still Love You,” which was stationed in the Pacific Ocean. It was the 34th mission for this particular booster, which is designated B1063.<\/p>\n

That’s just two flights shy of the Falcon 9 reuse record, which was set last month<\/u><\/a> on a different Starlink launch.<\/p>\n

If all goes according to plan, the 24 Starlink satellites will be deployed into LEO about 61 minutes after liftoff. They’ll join quite a few other spacecraft in the Starlink megaconstellation \u2014 nearly 10,900<\/u><\/a> at last count.<\/p>\n
