Start Falcona 9 z czternastą paczką StarlinkBY KRZYSZTOF KANAWKA ON 19 PAŹDZIERNIKA 2020
(...) Na pokładzie tej rakiety znalazła się czternasta paczka sześćdziesięciu satelitów konstelacji Starlink. Lot przebiegł prawidłowo i satelity zostały uwolnione na wstępnej orbicie okołoziemskiej, skąd pod własnym napędem dotrą do operacyjnej orbity o wysokości około 550 km. W przypadku tego startu uwolnienie satelitów nastąpiło po ponad godzinie od startu. Proces podwyższania orbity zajmie kilka tygodni. (...)

With the satellites launched Sunday, SpaceX has placed 835 Starlink broadband relay stations into orbit, including prototypes that won’t be used for commercial service. That extends SpaceX’s lead in operating the largest fleet of satellites in orbit.
The new Starlink spacecraft, built by SpaceX in Redmond, Washington, were expected to unfurl solar panels and activate krypton ion thrusters to begin raising their altitude to roughly 341 miles (550 kilometers), where they will begin providing broadband service. (...)

The nine Merlin 1D+ first-stage engines appear to “flare” outward as they continue their burn in the rarefied high atmosphere. Photo Credit: Jeff Seibert/AmericaSpaceSpaceX has successfully wrapped up its 18th mission of the year, having launched a previously-flown Falcon 9 on a Sunday morning commute from historic Pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. Liftoff of the B1051 core—only the second Falcon 9 in history to log a sixth flight and the first to fly as many as four times in a single calendar year—took place at 8:25 a.m. EDT, against perfectly blue Space Coast skies.
