With the successful return of the Falcon 9 rocket, it once again set a new record for repeatable launches of a SpaceX rocket. In addition, this also represents the 12th completed landing recovery of the rocket’s first-stage thrusters.

Moreover, the last batch of Starlink satellites was launched at 8:45 EST on March 9, and SpaceX successfully launched 48 “Starlink” satellites. Pushing it forward again, it is the 47 “Starlink” satellites launched on March 3.

Since March, three launch missions have been successfully completed, and there are currently more than 2,000 satellites in space. The latest data released by Ookla, the operator of Speedest.net, a global broadband network speed test website, shows that although SpaceX’s Starlink satellite Internet service has just completed the testing phase, its average download speed in 15 countries is now more than 100Mbps.
