The commercial spaceflight company led by Elon Musk increased its rocket launch frequency significantly over the last 12 months.
In 2020, for example, the commercial spaceflight company led by Elon Musk achieved a total of 26 launches, while last year it sent 31 rockets skyward, with all of the missions involving its dependable Falcon 9 rocket.
Related California-based SpaceX has clearly come a long way since its first cargo flight to the International Space Station in 2012, a year in which it performed a mere two launches. Part of the reason SpaceX has been able to increase its launch frequency is due to the Falcon 9’s design, which enables the landing of the first stage so that it can be easily deployed for multiple missions. This allows SpaceX to focus on refurbishing a small fleet of rockets rather than having to build numerous single-use boosters at great cost.
