SpaceX has confirmed the deployment of its latest batch of Starlink V2 Mini satellites into low Earth orbit. The launch, known as Starlink 10-32, marked the company’s 420th flight-proven booster mission. On Wednesday, a total of 27 new satellites joined SpaceX’s constellation.
According to forecasters from the 45th Weather Squadron, there was an initial 85% chance of favorable weather at the start of the launch window. However, this probability dropped to 40% by the end of the window due to potential thunderstorms associated with a seasonal change in high-pressure systems.
The mission utilized first stage booster 1080, which had previously carried out several notable missions, including private astronaut flights and cargo deliveries to the International Space Station. The booster successfully landed on the ‘Just Read the Instructions’ droneship just over eight minutes after liftoff, marking its 122nd touchdown and the 453rd booster landing overall.
