CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — SpaceX launched its Falcon 9 rocket on Tuesday morning from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, where there are both government and commercial space operations.
The California-based aerospace company’s reusable medium-lift launch vehicle lifted off at 9:20 a.m. from the Space Launch Complex 40.
“This is the first flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean,” SpaceX wrote on their website.
If needed, Space X said additional launch opportunities are available on Wednesday starting at 4:58 a.m. ET.
