SpaceX launches 350th Falcon 9 mission from Florida
On May 28, 2024, SpaceX launched its 350th Falcon 9 rocket mission to deploy 23 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
Weather was clear at the launch site and visuals shared by SpaceX showed Falcon 9’s liftoff and landing in clear daytime. This is due to the reason that the weather was well over 90 percent favorable for this launch.
