SpaceX has bounced back from an earlier failure by successfully launching two missions on July 28.
The company deployed batches of Starlink internet satellites from both coasts using Falcon 9 rockets, with liftoffs less than five hours apart.
This followed a Falcon 9 launch on July 27, marking the rocket’s return-to-flight after a failure on July 11.
The first launch on July 28, at 1:09 a.m. EDT, saw a Falcon 9 with 23 Starlink satellites take off from Cape Canaveral, Space.com has reported.
It was the 14th mission for that Falcon 9 first stage and the 300th reflight of a SpaceX booster.
