SpaceX launched another 28 Starlink satellites: over 8050 in orbit

The American company SpaceX launched another 28 internet satellites for Starlink into space on July 30. The Falcon 9 rocket lifted off from the spaceport in Florida with a large number of satellites on board. The first stage of the rocket successfully landed on the company's drone ship, while the second stage continued its journey to the planned orbit. Currently, there are over 8,050 active Starlink satellites in low Earth orbit, which is an impressive figure. This is already the 96th launch of SpaceX this year, most of which have been carried out using the Falcon 9 rocket.

SpaceX's future plans include two launches this week: another Starlink mission launch from California and the Crew-11 mission with astronauts to the International Space Station from the spaceport in Florida. SpaceX continues to actively develop the Starlink program and carry out planned missions in space.

On July 22, SpaceX sent two communication satellites for the company SES from Luxembourg into space, and earlier also launched a batch of 24 satellites for its competitor - the company Amazon.
