SpaceX successfully launched 21 Starlink satellites, including 13 with direct-to-cell capability, from Cape Canaveral on February 4.
The Falcon 9 rocket’s first stage landed on the drone ship “Just Read the Instructions” after an 8-minute flight, marking its 21st launch and landing.
The satellites were deployed into low Earth orbit about 65 minutes after liftoff, Space.com has reported.
This launch marks SpaceX’s 15th Falcon 9 mission in 2025, with 10 dedicated to Starlink, contributing to the company’s fleet of nearly 7,000 satellites.
