SpaceX Makes History with Four Rockets on Four Pads and Two Dragons in Orbit

Today, SpaceX made history as they had four rockets on four pads and two Dragons in orbit. The Crew-5 Dragon is still attached to the orbiting lab while the CRS-26 Dragon departed from the space station. Falcon Heavy rolled out of the hangar, two Falcon 9s readied for launch, and Ship 24 was stacked onto Booster 7. This is a remarkable achievement for SpaceX as it marks a new milestone in their mission to make space exploration more accessible. The Crew-5 Dragon will remain attached to the orbiting lab until its mission is complete before returning to Earth. Meanwhile, the CRS-26 Dragon has already left with supplies and experiments bound for Earth’s surface. The Falcon Heavy rocket is one of SpaceX’s most powerful rockets yet, capable of carrying up to 63 tons into low Earth orbit or 26 tons into geostationary transfer orbit (GTO). It is also capable of launching large payloads such as satellites or crewed missions into deep space destinations like Mars or Jupiter. The two Falcon 9s are set to launch soon with payloads that have yet to be revealed by SpaceX. Ship 24 was stacked onto Booster 7 which is part of an ongoing effort by SpaceX to recover their boosters after launch so they can be reused in future missions instead of being discarded after each use. This helps reduce costs significantly and allows them to focus resources on other aspects of their operations such as research and development. SpaceX continues to push boundaries with their innovative technology and ambitious goals for space exploration. With four rockets on four pads and two Dragons in orbit today, they have taken another step towards making space travel more accessible than ever before.
