SpaceX Flies Rocket 15th Time To Add To 3,000 Satellites In Orbit 

SpaceX, the Elon Musk-led rocket company, has achieved yet another major milestone by launching its 15th rocket post-flight recovery mission. With this flight, the company also increased its total number of satellites in orbit to nearly 3,000.

The latest mission, launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, sent the Falcon 9 rocket, carrying 60 more Starlink Internet satellites. Re-using rockets is an important part of SpaceX’s mission to provide more affordable launch and mission services.

SpaceX has worked hard to refine its re-flight technology, leveraging its work with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms. This allows the team to monitor in-flight data and continuously learn from what it sees.

The 15th mission was successful, resulting in the successful delivery of the Starlink Internet satellites into orbit. SpaceX also achieved a milestone of its own, landing the reusable rocket’s first stage back onto one of its autonomous droneships at sea for the ninth consecutive mission. This is a major step for the company and shows that their system is becoming more reliable.

SpaceX is not only providing more affordable launch and mission services, but it’s also clearing a path for a global satellite system that’s able to provide reliable internet access to more and more people. With each Falcon 9 mission, the total number of satellites in orbit is growing and this will eventually create greater coverage and reliability in high-speed internet services.

The success of the 15th and mission and the successful addition of 3,000 satellites to orbit have proven that SpaceX is on the right track in its mission to revolutionize the launch and mission services industry. The team is showing they are one step closer to achieving their goal of providing reliable internet access to more and more people around the world.
