SpaceX bags 60th successful Falcon 9 launch eight years after rocket's debut
Following the successful separation of the ~7 metric ton satellite Telstar 18V after a nominal orbit insertion, SpaceX’s venerable Falcon 9 rocket can now lay claim to a full 60 successful orbital missions completed over the course of its relatively brief eight-year career as a commercial launch vehicle. Telstar 18V – the second heaviest commercial satellite ever launched into orbit – is now free to make its way into a final geostationary orbit ~35,800 km (~22,250 mi) above Earth’s surface, where it will serve the Eastern Hemisphere with a variety of communications services, ranging from TV to internet.
