A Falcon 9’ has launched the company’s Transporter-6 mission from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched GPS III-3, Turksat 5A, Transporter-2, Intelsat G-33/G-34 and 10 Starlink missions.
Following stage separation, the Falcon 9’s first stage accomplished a soft landing at Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
Transporter-6 is SpaceX’s sixth dedicated smallsat rideshare mission. There are 114 payloads on this flight, including smallsats and orbital transfer vehicles (OTVs), carrying spacecraft for later deployments.
