On Tuesday, July 1 at 5:04 p.m. ET, Falcon 9 launched the Eumetsat MTG-S1 mission to geosynchronous transfer orbit from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
This was the ninth flight for the Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Crew-9, RRT-1, Firefly Blue Ghost Mission 1, Fram2, SXM-10, and three Starlink missions.
Nearly 8.5 minutes after liftoff, B1085 landed on the droneship, Just Read the Instructions. This was the 127th landing for this vessel and the 471st booster landing to date.
