    SpaceX just Put 53 more Starlink Satellites in Orbit

    On Saturday, SpaceX added 53 more satellites to its constellation of low Earth orbit satellites. A Falcon 9 rocket carried the satellites from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 7:19 a.m.EST. The satellites were released from the rocket only 16 minutes after launch.

    The rocket has a reusable first stage which has been used multiple times already. It launched the first crewed test flight of SpaceX‘s Crew Dragon spacecraft. The reusable stage successfully returned and landed on the “Just Read the Instructions” drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.

    Starlink is a global internet system that will bring internet access to areas that are remote. SpaceX has been working on Starlink for years now and earlier this week they successfully put the 600th man in space. The 600th man in space took a 21-hour trip from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center to the International Space Station.
