SpaceX launched yet another batch of Starlink internet satellites, despite a recent warning from NASA that the satellites might impede the scientific community’s ability to detect a catastrophic asteroid heading towards Earth.
SpaceX launched 48 Starlink satellites on Wednesday, March 9, aboard a Falcon 9 rocket that took off from Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida at 08:45 EST (15:45 GMT).
The rocket’s first stage successfully returned to Earth for landing on SpaceX droneship ‘A Shortfall of Gravitas’.
