During the early hours of Wednesday, July 2, SpaceX launched a second rocket in a July doubleheader.
The Starlink 10-25 mission took off at 2:28 a.m. from Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station after an hour delay. The Falcon 9 booster launching this mission saw its 29th launch and landing − setting a new record for SpaceX.
As SpaceX continues to push its fleet of Falcon 9 rockets, it remains to be seen how many reflights a single Falcon 9 booster can achieve.
On July 1, SpaceX launched a satellite for the European Space Agency.
