SpaceX SUCCESSFULLY Launched Another Batch Of Starlink Satellites..
Welcome back to Tech Vault. SpaceX has launched another batch of Starlink satellites into orbit on their Starlink Group 3-4 mission. Launching from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, the Falcon 9 Block 5 lifted off at 10:40 PM PDT on Tuesday, August 30 (05:40 UTC on Wednesday, August 31). This mission marked SpaceX’s 39th mission of 2022–a mission every 6.13 days. Starlink Group 3-4 marks the 110th orbital launch of 2022, making SpaceX account for over a third of all orbital launches this year. Overall, this was Falcon 9’s 174th mission (173rd launch) and 111th launch with a flight-proven booster.
The Starlink Group 3-4 mission utilized SpaceX’s booster B1063-7. The -7 signifies that this is the seventh flight of this specific booster, having previously supported Sentinel-6A, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART), and four Starlink missions. The booster last supported the Starlink Group 3-1 mission, which flew just 51 days ago. Following stage separation the booster made a landing 640 km downrange on SpaceX’s Autonomous Spaceport Drone Ship (ASDS) Of Course I Still Love You (OCISLY). This was SpaceX’s 150th Falcon recovery attempt and marked SpaceX’s 65th consecutive landing (a record) and 139th booster landing. Meanwhile, For the first time since 1972, a moon rocket was ready to launch on the first of three sequenced missions to return humanity to the lunar surface. This time to stay. However, that milestone will have to wait until at least September 2, following a scrub during the initial launch attempt due to an issue with Engine 3’s bleed system.
