SpaceX’s Most Recent Falcon 9 Mission Adds 28 Satellites to Starlink

SpaceX launched 28 new starlink satellites into low Earth orbit early on August 31, 2025. The Starlink 10-14 mission adds to the company’s expanding broadband Internet satellite network. The Starlink constellation, which now has hundreds of members, is designed to provide quick connectivity anywhere. SpaceX has launched hundreds of Starlink satellites since 2019. The launch also demonstrates SpaceX’s use of reusable rocket technology and its record-breaking mission pace this year. After this one-hour flight, SpaceX verified that all 28 satellites had arrived at their intended orbits.

Starlink 10-14 Launch

A Falcon 9 rocket launched 28 Starlink satellites into low Earth orbit at 7:49 a.m. EDT from the Space Force Station at Cape Canaveral in Florida, according to SpaceX. The satellites were launched into their intended orbit around an hour later. SpaceX’s ambitious plan to grow the Starlink constellation is being carried out with this mission.

Of the 9,600 Starlink satellites the business has launched, more than 8,200 are currently operational and offer worldwide Internet access. SpaceX demonstrated the quick pace of these deployments earlier this week when it launched another group of Starlink satellites from California into space. The Starlink constellation is currently the biggest satellite constellation ever put into orbit.

History of Booster B1077 Flight

With this launch, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket B1077 concluded its 23rd flight. Throughout its history, it has launched GPS and communications satellites (including payloads from Inmarsat and Intelsat), carried nasa‘s Crew-5 humans to the ISS, and conducted resupply flights to the station (SpaceX’s CRS-28 and Northrop Grumman’s NG-20).

B1077 has also carried dozens of earlier Starlink batches. After separation, the booster returned to Earth and made a precision landing on SpaceX’s autonomous drone ship Just Read the Instructions in the Atlantic Ocean.

Additionally, B1077 has transported numerous previous Starlink batches. The booster returned to Earth after separation and landed precisely in the Atlantic Ocean on SpaceX’s self-governing drone ship, Just Read the Instructions.
