“Due to the additional functionality to deliver the payload to the orbit of Geosíncrono Movement, this project marks the 21st and last launch of this Falcon Nine reinforcement in the first step,” Spacex published in X.
This reinforcement, with its nine Merlin engines, introduced a moon on the moon, critics and studies at the foreign area station, and more than 400 Starlink satellites in orbit since its first launch in May 2022.
The brace measures 135 feet at the top with a diameter of 12 feet and weighs 955,000 pounds.
It lacked grid fins for recovery and stability, as well as landing legs.
SpaceX has two touchdown sites: a gravity deficit and reading instructions only. They are ocean barges supplied by propulsion.
Spacex has controlled Land Falcon Nine Boosters in the first scene 386 times since 2013.
There are 17 boosters in its lineup that have flown before.
The satellite is supported through the European firm and manufactured through the defense and space of Airbus.

The next planned flight is scheduled for 3:32 p. m. PST Wednesday of the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Falcon Nine will launch Starlink satellites.
