Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) sent another batch of 51 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit in what was Falcon 9 B1058 reusable first-stage booster's record-setting 14th mission, APA reports citing Teletrader.

SpaceX also launched AST SpaceMobile's BlueWalker 3 satellite from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Falcon 9 B1058 was first launched on May 30, 2020, in a historic crewed spaceflight and has later been used in ANASIS-II, CRS-21, Transporter-1, Transporter-3, and eight Starlink missions.

"No obvious limit to rocket reflight so far," SpaceX founder, CEO, Chairman and CTO Elon Musk tweeted after the booster landed.
