概要

 SpaceX is charging ahead with its relentless launch cadence, highlighted by a high-stakes Starlink mission set for this morning from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. According to Spaceflight Now, the Falcon 9 rocket, using first-stage booster B1097 on its seventh flight, aims to deploy 25 more Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit during a window opening at 7 a.m. PDT on April 19. This follows a postponement from Saturday, with the booster targeting a landing on the droneship "Of Course I Still Love You" in the Pacific—potentially marking SpaceX's 600th Falcon booster landing overall and the 191st on that vessel. Edhat reports that Central Coast residents, including those in Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, and Ventura counties, should brace for sonic booms upon the booster's return.

Just days ago, on April 14, SpaceX hit a milestone by launching its 1,000th Starlink satellite of 2026 from Cape Canaveral, as detailed by Spaceflight Now. The Starlink 10-24 mission sent 29 broadband satellites skyward atop booster B1080, which notched its 26th flight and landed successfully on "Just Read the Instructions," bringing the year's total to 1,002 satellites and the company's overall booster landings to 598.

Adding to the buzz, NASA announced on April 16 that SpaceX's Falcon Heavy will launch Europe's Rosalind Franklin Mars rover—the company's first official Mars mission—from Kennedy Space Center in late 2028, per Space.com. This life-hunting robot will probe Oxia Planum for organic molecules, with NASA supplying key instruments.

On the Starship front, social media and YouTube channels like What About It are abuzz with footage of a recent Super Heavy static fire test for Starship 39, roaring to life ahead of inspections that could open a May 1 launch window. Gossip swirls on X about Elon Musk's uncrewed Starship Mars fleet ambitions clashing with regulatory hurdles, fueling speculation of delays into late 2026.

These feats underscore SpaceX's dominance, expanding its 10,200-plus Starlink constellation while eyeing interplanetary frontiers.
