SpaceX launches human remains, reentry capsules and more on Transporter 14

الوصف:

SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from California’s Vandenberg Space Force Base on June 23, carrying 70 payloads on its Transporter 14 rideshare mission. The payloads include microsats, cubesats, reentry capsules, and a memorial mission carrying cremated remains and DNA aboard The Exploration Company’s Nyx reusable spacecraft. The Falcon 9’s first stage successfully landed on the drone ship “Of Course I Still Love You,” marking its 26th flight, nearing SpaceX’s reusability record, Space.com has reported. Over nearly two hours, the rocket’s upper stage will deploy the diverse payloads, which include Earth‑observing satellites and a commercial docking demonstration planned later this year.
