On Thursday, May 1 at 9:51 p.m. ET, Falcon 9 launched 28 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
This was the 18th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Ax-2, Euclid, Ax-3, CRS-30, SES ASTRA 1P, NG-21, and now 12 Starlink missions.
A little more than eight minutes after liftoff, B1080 landed on the droneship, Just Read the Instructions, marking the 118th booster landing on that vessel and the 440th booster landing to date.
