Launch of Starlink Group 10-39
SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral in Florida at 1514 UTC, or 1114 local time (EDT). This was carrying Starlink Group 10-39, a batch of 29 satellites for the constellation. It was the 681st flight of the Falcon 9, and the 30th flight of booster B1078, which successfully landed on the droneship A Shortfall of Gravitas in the Atlantic Ocean. [Source: SpaceX]

Recovered Zhuque-3 Booster Falls Over
Photographs and other evidence have emerged confirming the rumours that LandSpace's Zhuque-3 first stage, which made its first successful landing on Tuesday, has toppled over. Reports indicate that a fire weakened one of the landing legs, leading to the collapse a few hours after the landing. It is unlikely that LandSpace will be able to re-fly the damaged booster, so while the landing of the rocket was successful, full recovery has not been achieved. [Source: CNSPACE]
