SpaceX just notched another impressive milestone.
A Falcon 9 rocket launched the Merah Putih 2 communications satellite from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station today at 3:11 p.m. EST (2011 GMT), then deployed it into orbit 34.5 minutes later.
It was the 300th successful mission for the workhorse rocket to date, SpaceX noted this afternoon in a post on X.
