SpaceX officials confirmed the Falcon 9 rocket placed the Starlink satellites into an on-target orbit, concluding the company’s 110th Falcon 9 launch since 2010, and the 94th straight successful flight by SpaceX’s Falcon rocket family. (...)
More than 1,100 of the Starlink satellites appear to be functioning, discounting test spacecraft and failed satellites, according to a catalog maintained by Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer and widely-respected tracker of space activity.
The Starlink network could eventually number more than 10,000 satellites, but the first tranche of Starlinks will have 1,584 satellites orbiting 341 miles (550 kilometers) above Earth on paths tilted 53 degrees to the equator. SpaceX has approval from the Federal Communications Commission for around 12,000 Starlink satellites at a range of altitudes and inclinations, all within a few hundred miles of the planet. The low altitude enables the satellites to deliver high-speed, low-latency connectivity to customers, and helps ensure the spacecraft naturally re-enter the atmosphere faster than if they flew farther from Earth.
Starlink is already providing interim beta service across high latitude regions, such as the northern United States, Canada, and England. More Starlink launches this year will enable an expanded coverage area.
SpaceX announced earlier his week that the Starlink beta service will soon begin reaching customers in Germany, New Zealand, and in other regions of the United Kingdom, including Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and northern England. Those areas could receive beta service in the “coming weeks,” SpaceX said. (...)

B1058 climbs uphill at 3:13 a.m. EST Thursday to begin her sixth mission. Photo Credit: Alan Walters/AmericaSpaceSpaceX has successfully flown its seventh Falcon 9 mission of 2021 in record-setting time, as the Hawthorne, Calif.-headquartered launch services provider aims for as many as 48 flights—an average of nearly one per week—throughout this year. The veteran B1058 core, teamed with a sparkling-new upper stage and previously-flown payload fairing halves, rose into the night from Space Launch Complex (SLC)-40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Fla., at 3:13 a.m. EST Thursday. (...)
More recently, on 24 January, B1058 became only the fifth Falcon 9 core to log a fifth mission and just the fourth—when one discounts the final moments of last March’s voyage of her ill-fated sister B1048—to return to an intact landing after so many flights. And in flying so often, she secured yet another record of 239 days between her first five missions. Launching a sixth time tonight, she has now flown six times in 285 days. (...)
Touchdown of B1058 came eight minutes and 30 seconds into the flight, marking this particular booster’s second landing on JRTI and its eighth drone ship return overall. In doing so, she became the fourth Falcon 9 to fly a sixth mission, but also—when one discounts the failed landing of B1059 last month—only the third to return safely and intact from a sixth mission.
