A SpaceX rocket was successfully launched from the Wandenberg Space Force Base on Saturday after a debris from the previous West Coast Mission in Poland due to a second -stage mess for Falcon.
At 5:38 pm, the rocket took 22 starlink satellites into the classroom, in which SpaceX confirmed the deployment one hour after the departure.
The first phase of the rocket also landed on a droneship posted in the Pacific Ocean.
Saturday’s mission occurred three weeks after another Starlink Mission in Wandenberg, experienced a mess in the second phase, leading to debris landing in Poland.
Furious re -entry images and second phase used on social media sites began to appear on 19 February.
SpaceX confirmed the second phase of Falcon Rocket from February. 1 Mission resumed Earth’s atmosphere on Europe. According to social media users in Europe, dozens of people reported fierce vision.
The firm said in a written statement, “SpaceX is working closely with the Poland government on recovery and cleanup efforts.” “There are no toxic materials in the debris.”
Anyone who believes that they have identified a piece of a used rocket portion should not try to handle or reconstruct the debris directly. Instead, please contact your local authorities or SpaceX debris hotline on 1-866-623-0234 or on reacry@spacex.com.
Unlike other rockets, Falcon usually uses recycled components, including the first stage booster, or less two-thirds and the most complex segment of the vehicle. The first-phase booster returns to a dronescripting or Wandenberg to complete its tasks, so it can be used again.
The firm also fixes two parts of the payload fairing, or the nose cone for reusing.
But each mission appoints a new second-step engine, with a goal with the target of disposal of component used above the sea in a controlled entry after a payload delivery.
However, a mess stopped the re -entry controlled for the 1st February mission.
SpaceX revealed a liquid oxygen leakage during the planned coast, which was interfered with specific handling of the second stage component spent.
SpaceX said in a written statement, “SpaceX actively and properly canceled its Falcon for most missions, performing a controlled disposal in the broader ocean regions.”
“The vehicle has an excellent track record of successfully doing so, including 115 successful in second phases out of 116 in 2024.”
Due to the leakage, the planned dyerbit burn was not performed and steps were taken to remove the sources of energy stored on the component.
SpaceX said, “Teams actively assess the root cause of the source of leakage and have already implemented mitigation for future flights.”
In the last summer after a Wandenberg liftoff, a mess involved in the second stage of a space rocket left the starlink satellites in a unusable orbit, a rare mission result for Falcon 9 vehicles.
The firm also reported a “off-nominal decorbit burn” after a Florida launch in September.
After Saturday’s launch, the West Coast SpaceX crew will prepare the next rocket in the form of two NASA Mission, Safarex and Panch, which will soon share a ride in space on Friday.

The two -year mission asks to map the entire sky as scientists have indicated water, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and other major elements for life.
A second payload, punch (polemimeter to unite the corona and heliosfare) mission, claims four satellites to study solar wind.
NASA officials announced a day’s delay for the launch of space telescope and sun missions, which “provides time to ensure the readiness of the vehicle before the liftoff”. The departure is now planned for 7:09 pm on Friday.
