Sept. 25 (UPI) -- Cape Canaveral was the site of two successful rocket launches Thursday morning, one from SpaceX and another from United Launch Alliance.
SpaceX launched its 86th Starlink mission this year. The flight will add another 28 Starlink V2 Mini satellites to orbit. It has 8,400 already there.
The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched from pad 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 4:39 a.m. EDT.
It used the Falcon9 booster with tail number B1080, which made its 22nd flight on this mission. At about 8.5 minutes after liftoff, it landed on the drone ship A Shortfall of Gravitas. It was the 126th recovery for the ship.
