BlockBeats report: On June 6, SpaceX once again broke its own record for high-frequency launches: between June 3 and 4 local time, the company launched two Falcon 9 rockets from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California and Cape Canaveral in Florida, respectively, to carry out the Starlink 17-47 and Starlink 10-43 missions, deploying a total of 53 Starlink satellites, with less than 19 hours between the two launches.


Among these, the mission on June 3 launched 24 satellites at 8:40 AM Pacific Time, and the mission on June 4 launched 29 satellites at 6:26 AM Eastern Time.
