About this reported SpaceX, the development company on Twitter, reported Ukrinform.

The launch was carried out from the Vandenberg Space Force base in California.

At 1 hour and 3 minutes after launch, 46 satellites left the second stage of the rocket in low Earth orbit (320 km).

The first reusable stage of the American Falcon 9 launch vehicle, used for the tenth time in launches, made a controlled vertical landing on the Of Course I Still Love You floating drone platform in the Pacific Ocean approximately nine minutes after launch.

In addition, a special SpaceX rescue ship must take out of the water two wings of the fairing of the main part of the rocket, which, after separation, landed on the parachutes. Reusing the coating allows SpaceX to save up to $6 million during the launch of its rockets.

We will remind: this is the 56th launch of a group of Internet satellites into orbit since May 2019 as part of the Starlink project. Internet satellites weighing 290 kg each will be part of the orbital group Space X.

Over time, SpaceX launched 3,055 Starlink Internet satellites, some of which failed or went out of orbit. More than 2.7 thousand devices are currently in orbit in working condition.
