    Launch Roundup: Rocket Lab fails during “We Will Never Desert You” launch; SpaceX launches two boosters for 17th time

    by Trevor Sesnic September 18, 2023
    written by Trevor Sesnic

    The week of Sept. 18 through Sept. 24 is set to see four orbital launches, all but one of which are set to take place from US-based aerospace companies. Firstly, Rocket Lab launched its ninth Electron of 2023 on a mission dubbed “We Will Never Desert You.” However, the mission suffered a failure during staging.

    Later, SpaceX launched its Starlink Group 6-17 mission from Space Launch Complex (SLC-40). Later in the week, SLC-40 saw the launch of yet another Starlink mission, dubbed Starlink Group 6-18. In between these missions was the launch of a Ceres-1 rocket, from China, which also suffered an anomaly at a currently unknown phase of flight.

    These missions marked the 152nd through 155th launches of 2023; at this pace, the world is on track for over 210 launches by the end of the year, which will mark a new record. SpaceX has made up over 40% of these launches, with these two Falcon launches being its 66th and 67th Falcon flights of 2023.

    Early on Sept. 25, SpaceX launched its third Starlink mission in a seven-day period. Starlink Group 7-3 launched on Monday, at 00:23 AM PDT (07:23 UTC).
