Another busy week of launches has arrived, with SpaceX dominating the launch manifest with four missions for the week. Three of these missions saw new batches of Starlink internet satellites launched into the company’s Starlink constellation, with the fourth mission launching a payload for the National Reconnaissance Office.
Blue Origin finally launched its uncrewed NS-35 mission on New Shepard on Thursday after several delays due to issues with vehicle systems. New Shepard launched over 40 experiments and research payloads into space, as well as thousands of postcards.
