The first launch on Sunday featured the Starship rocket taking off from Texas, with its first-stage booster successfully returning to the launch pad, caught by the tower’s metal arms.

CEO Elon Musk hailed it as a “big step towards making life multiplanetary.” The Starship, the largest and most powerful rocket ever, soared over 130 miles high before landing in the Indian Ocean.

The following day, NASA’s Europa Clipper launched aboard SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy from Florida, set to explore whether conditions on Jupiter’s moon Europa could support life, Fox News has reported.

On Tuesday, SpaceX launched two Falcon 9 rockets from Florida and California, deploying dozens of Starlink satellites and marking its 100th launch of the year, with two and a half months remaining in 2024.
