SpaceX Falcon 9 launches TD7 mission from Florida

SpaceX has launched a new Falcon 9 rocket to deploy a TD7 satellite mission to a geosynchronous transfer orbit. The liftoff was carried out from launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

This is one of the four launches the company has planned for the next three days including the Starship Flight 6. The company has taken the first launch window for this new mission.

After sending the rocket to space, the first stage maneuvered back to Earth and landed on a Shortfall of Gravitas droneship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.
