SpaceX Launches 60 More Starlink Satellites
SpaceX launched 60 Starlink broadband satellites into orbit aboard a Falcon 9 rocket from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Elon Musk’s company has now launched 1,565 Starlink spacecraft, with 1,498 in orbit.
The Falcon 9 first stage landed on the Of Course I Still Love You drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean. It was the ninth landing for the booster, which previously supported the launches of Telstar 18 VANTAGE, Iridium-8, and six Starlink missions.

The strip-mining of Earth orbit continues.
Yes, turning it into a valuable resource finally linking disadvantaged rural areas to the world
Dead-center bull’s-eye landing, and use #9 of the booster.
I see SpaceX is hiring a Senior engineer for a StarLink Content Distribution Network. I smell partnerships with content providers & streaming networks.
