Rocket Rundown by Andrew Parsonson -October 25, 2020

With the launch of its thirteenth Starlink mission of 2020, SpaceX successfully completed its 100th mission aboard a Falcon rocket since the first took to the sky in September 2008.

Over its more than a decade of launch operations, SpaceX has forged the path for reusability. The company remains the only launch provider recovering and reusing rocket boosters, a capability that several companies around the world are currently trying to replicate.

In addition to being the market leader in reusability, the Falcon 9 rocket has become the most-flown operational rocket in the United States, having overtaken stalwarts like the Atlas V and Delta IV by more than 10 missions.
