The evolution of SpaceX's rockets in pictures
The SpaceX Falcon 9 in this photo taken on Jan. 30, 2022 picture is set to launch the Cosmo-SkyMed Second Generation FM2 satellite. In the background, at right, is the SpaceX's Starlink launch atop a second SpaceX Falcon 9 from NASA's Kennedy Space Center. The photo was taken from a site near the Cosmo-SkyMed satellite's launch site at Space Launch Complex 40 of Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
A second SpaceX photo reverses the view, with the Falcon 9 at SLC-40 in the foreground and the Starlink-packed booster in the background at KSC. That photo, apparently taken at a different time over the weekend, shows the two rockets under a pristine blue Florida sky. for SpaceX to launch the Cosmo-SkyMed Second Generation FM2 satellite. The Starlink Falcon 9 rocket is going to launch 49 more Starlinks to add on to SpaceX's constellation of nearly 2,000 operational satellites.
Both SpaceX Falcon 9 rockets have flown several missions before. Their first-stage boosters are also expected to return to Earth for landings on either a land-based pad at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station or an offshore drone ship so they can be used again.
So cool!
elon should just launch both at the same time for the fuck of it
