Core Landing
B1058 has landed on ASDS JRTI after launching the Starlink 4-1 mission.
Just Read the Instructions – JRTI
First (Marmac 300) and third (Marmac 303) ASDS barge, Just Read the Instructions (JRTI) is currently used to recover Falcon 9 and Heavy boosters in the Altantic Ocean.
Autonomous Spaceport Drone Ship – ASDS
An autonomous spaceport drone ship (ASDS) is an ocean-going vessel derived from a deck barge, outfitted with station-keeping engines and a large landing platform. Construction of such ships was commissioned by aerospace company SpaceX to allow for recovery of rocket first-stages at sea for high-velocity missions which do not carry enough fuel to return to the launch site after lofting spacecraft onto an orbital trajectory.

Space Exploration Technologies Corp., known as SpaceX, is an American aerospace manufacturer and space transport services company headquartered in Hawthorne, California. It was founded in 2002 by entrepreneur Elon Musk with the goal of reducing space transportation costs and enabling the colonization of Mars. SpaceX operates from many pads, on the East Coast of the US they operate from SLC-40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and historic LC-39A at Kennedy Space Center. They also operate from SLC-4E at Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, usually for polar launches. Another launch site is being developed at Boca Chica, Texas.
Space X success coming up .
What happened to the estimated dates for launch?
Dates more than 30 days out are a guess and will most likely get moved. The website has been updated to prevent confusion.
Let me get this straight. You post that on Oct 30 there will be a Starlink 30 launch at 5:00PM MST from the Cape, a super Heavy launch at 5:PM MST FROM Kennedy and also a SpX USCV 3 launch at 11:37PM MST from Kennedy. Wow. If this is possible… Read more »
The status for both the launches is displayed as the “Date/Time May Change”. These dates are a placeholder and will be updated. Launches are not usually confirmed more than two weeks out.
Thanks for the clarification.
I thought the launch on Saturday was Vandenberg SFB?
Let’s hope for another Spacex launch.
Let’s hope hope for another successful Spacex launch.
I was born and raised in Orlando. I’ve seen hundreds of launches. However, today was my son’s 1st launch since he was born in Michigan. It went off with a hitch and I as well as my son was thrilled. Great job SpaceX!
Same here Marc, only seen launches via video coverage because we live in South Australia . Its always a thrill to witness but one day we will see a live launch .
Enjoy further live launches with your son thanks to SpaceX because these are only the beginning.
A-1 LAUNCH AGAIN SpaceX the coverage was also great to watch , the fog made a good background .
A 2000 satellite launch milestone with this mission, fantastic job to all involved at SpaceX.
Keep on keeping on folks.
