The SpaceX Company Launched into space on Saturday Florida (EE.UU.) Recyclable Falcon 9 rocket a The new set of 52 satellites for its Starling Internet network, After detecting favorable atmospheric conditions for the work.
In addition to the satellites that provide broadband internet, Rocket One is connected Cabella Satellite Aperture (SAR) Radar Satellite Another Divac-0130 was mentioned by SpaceX via Twitter.
According to the American National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOOA), The latter being “an optical spectrum astronomical observation nanosatellite”.
The launch took place at 39:56 pm from EDT (22:56 GMT) Complex 39A Kennedy Space Station, Cape Canaveral (East Florida), and eight minutes and 30 seconds after the reusable area completed the decision to successfully land on a floating platform in the Atlantic.
The Falcon 9 reusable rocket The two phases departed with the satellite pack at the tip and then landed on the baptismal platform.Of course I still love you “(of course I still love you).
This allows the more expensive parts of the SpaceX rocket to be reused, which reduces the cost of access to space, according to its website.
This is the third Falcon 9 rocket launched in the last two weeks, as well as the Falcon 9’s 15th mission in 2021 so far.
Since 2010 at least 116 launch pads of this rocket have been considered the “labor” of cby Elon Musk, Owner of Tesla electric cars and a NASA partner in a program to send astronauts aboard a commercial spacecraft from US soil to the International Space Station.
Muskin’s company idea is to put a few 1,584 Starling program satellites in Earth orbit, About 549 kilometers from the ground, is a much shorter distance than usual for these commercial devices.
On May 4th The space agency sent another set of 60 satellites into space from Florida For your Starling web network.
The StarLink project now provides an early beta service both domestically and internationally, and the SpaceX website explains that by 2021 the world will continue to expand for the global security of the population.
By sending a large number of satellites from the Starling network, SpaceX aims to provide “affordable” stable high speed internet to users anywhere in the world These satellites will run in low orbit, which will allow for better connectivity and service.
Last Thursday, the Technology company Google It was announced that a joint venture agreement has been reached with Spacex To provide data, cloud services and applications for Starling business customers locations around the world starting this year.
In addition, SpaceX will install ground stations within Google data centers that connect to Starling satellites, allowing faster and more secure Internet services Google Cloud.
