After SpaceX achieved a record-breaking 12 Falcon 9 launches in March, the company continued this cadence during the first week of April. Missions this week included a Starlink flight, a mystery-shrouded launch from China, then another three Falcon 9’s toward the end of the week — two more Starlinks and the first of a series of new mid-inclination rideshare missions, Bandwagon-1.
The high cadence of SpaceX missions means that the missions are very susceptible to cascading schedule changes when a flight encounters a delay.
