QNA:
The American Space Exploration Technologies Corporation (SpaceX) launched a fleet of new Internet satellites from “Starlink” into space.
The Falcon 9 rocket, carrying 22 of SpaceX’s new “V2 Mini” internet satellites for the Starlink communications suite, launched from Space Launch Complex No. 40 from Cape Canaveral, Florida, USA.
It should be noted that another Falcon 9 rocket was scheduled to be launched from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center to the International Space Station of NASA, but bad weather forced SpaceX to delay it until tomorrow (Monday). .
Today’s launch came 13 years after the day of SpaceX’s first-ever Falcon 9 launch in 2010.
It is noteworthy that the “Starlink” group of satellites is working to cover the entire globe with the fast internet, thanks to the deployment of a large number of satellites in Earth’s orbit, and the weight of each satellite does not exceed 500 kilograms.
