SpaceX’s Falcon 9 launched early Thursday morning, taking 29 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
This was the 36th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, and the jellyfish-like trail created during launch captured a lot of attention.
