SPACE ECONOMY

SpaceX launched 29 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit on January 14 at 1:08 p.m. from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station's Space Launch Complex 40. This marked the fourth mission of the year, occurring just 45 hours after the previous launch from the same pad, setting a record for turnaround time at Cape Canaveral.

The Falcon 9 rocket's first-stage booster, which has supported 13 missions, successfully landed on the drone ship A Shortfall of Gravitas in the Atlantic Ocean after stage separation. The booster had previously been used for multiple missions including Crew-9 and other Starlink launches.
