SpaceX launches 24 Starlink satellites on 2024’s Veterans Day

SpaceX lifted off a new Falcon 9 rocket with a payload of 24 Starlink satellites to mark 2024 Veterans Day. This adds another successful mission to orbit with continuously improving satellite communication constellation.

The Falcon 9 rocket ignited engines from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The mission was broadcast on the social media site X and the SpaceX account on the X TV app.

This mission marked the 12th flight for the first stage booster and it landed on a A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship in the Atlantic Ocean. On the other hand, it previously supported Euclid, Axiom-2, Axiom-3, Cygnus NG-21, SES 24, CRS-30 and five Starlink missions.
