SpaceX launched this Thursday, the 4th, another 60 satellites in orbit under the Starlink project, which aims to create an Internet network that brings stable connections to remote areas.
Elon Musk’s space agency also said on its social media page that this is the fifth launch of the Falcon 9 rocket used in this mission, which also managed to land safely on a maritime platform in the Atlantic, 630km off the US coast.
