SpaceX Falcon 9 Launches Latest Batch of Internet-Beaming Starlink Satellites

SpaceX launched its sixteenth Starlink mission of 60 Starlink satellites from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on Tuesday, November 24.

The Falcon 9 first stage rocket booster supporting this mission previously flew on six other missions: the Telstar 18 VANTAGE mission in September 2018, the Iridium-8 mission in January 2019, and four Starlink missions in May 2019, January 2020, June 2020, and August 2020.

Last month, SpaceX launched its “Better Than Nothing Beta” test program. Service invites were sent to a portion of those who requested availability updates on Starlink.com and who live in serviceable areas. A couple weeks ago, Canada granted Starlink regulatory approval and SpaceX has now rolled out the service to parts of southern Canada.
