SpaceX is gearing up for another record-breaking year in 2025 after surpassing all previous record-breaking years in 2024. The company launched 138 times in 2024, 134 of which were with its Falcon family of rockets. While SpaceX suffered three mishaps during the third quarter of the year, the company was able to fix these issues and continue with its record-breaking cadence.
SpaceX also made great progress on its human spaceflight programs with Dragon and continued deploying its Starlink satellite constellation, which continues to expand its user base at an accelerated pace. The company also launched its Starship rocket, the world’s most powerful rocket, four times — finally achieving the return of a Super Heavy booster to the launch site and acing three consecutive reentries of the Starship vehicle.
