    The new Falcon 9 rocket launched 27 more Starlink satellites into orbit

    The American company SpaceX has launched another batch of 27 Starlink Internet satellites into orbit. This time, a new Falcon 9 launch vehicle was used, which had not been used before.

    This is reported by Space.com Tuesday, April 8th.

    The launch of the Falcon 9 launch vehicle with 27 satellites was carried out from the Vandenberg space Center in California.

    The first stage of the rocket returned to Earth about eight minutes after launch, as planned. She landed in the Pacific Ocean on a SpaceX drone ship.

    The Starlink satellites were deployed in low Earth orbit about an hour after launch.

    The launch of a new Falcon 9 rocket has become a relatively rare occurrence as SpaceX continues to improve its ability to rebuild, upgrade, and launch reusable rockets.

    SpaceX's Starlink network currently consists of more than 7,000 active satellites in space. korrespondent.net.
