Africa-Press – Sierra-Leone. <\/strong><\/span>Elon Musk\u2019s SpaceX launched 22 Starlink satellites from Cape Canaveral in Florida on Sunday as part of its mission to bring broadband internet to customers around the globe.<\/p>\n

“On Sunday, June 4 at 8:20 a.m. ET [12:20 GMT], Falcon 9 launched 22 second-generation Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40),” the company said.<\/p>\n

The first stage of the partially reusable Falcon 9 medium-lift rocket returned to the sea-based droneship, called Just Read the Instructions. This was the third successful launch and landing for this Falcon 9 booster.SpaceX said that the second Falcon 9 launch of the day, which was due to send a resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS), was tentatively pushed back to Monday due to high winds in the recovery area.<\/p>\n

“The instantaneous launch window is at 11:47 a.m. ET (15:47 UTC) and a backup launch opportunity is available on Wednesday, June 7 at 11:01 a.m. ET (15:01 UTC) pending range approval,” it said.<\/p>\n

The Falcon 9 rocket will carry a Dragon spacecraft loaded with more than 7,000 pounds of science experiments, crew supplies and hardware to the orbital outpost under NASA\u2019s second commercial resupply services contract with SpaceX.<\/p>\n

Starlink is a next-generation satellite network designed to provide broadband internet access around the world, which was launched by SpaceX in February 2018.<\/p>\n
