Elon Musk’s SpaceX launched 28 next-generation Starlink satellites into orbit Thursday night using a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida. This marked the company’s **464th Falcon 9 launch** since 2010 and the **23rd mission** deploying satellites over the Atlantic Ocean near the Bahamas.
The newly launched V2 mini-satellites are lighter than earlier models but part of a larger, upgraded design aimed at enhancing global internet coverage. The reusable Falcon 9 booster successfully landed on a droneship post-launch, continuing SpaceX’s cost-effective satellite deployment strategy.
