Liftoff occurred at 6:13 a.m. EDT on Monday (June 8).

SpaceX has again broken its own rocket reuse record, launching a first
stage booster for its 35th time.

The Falcon 9 rocket, carrying 29 Starlink satellites into low Earth
orbit, launched on Monday (June 8). The vehicle lifted off at 6:13 a.m.
EDT (1013 GMT) from Space Launch Complex 40 at the Cape Canaveral Space
Force Station in Florida.

Just over an hour later, SpaceX confirmed successful deployment of the Starlink payload (Group 10-35).

The record-setting first stage, Booster 1067, completed its 35th trip to
space and back by landing on the droneship "A Shortfall of Gravitas"
stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. With this flight, the Falcon 9 is
approaching the overall reuse record set by NASA's space shuttle orbiter
at 39 flights.

The launch increased SpaceX's Starlink megaconstellation to more than
10,580 active satellites, according to tracker Jonathan McDowell. The
network provides broadband internet access around the world, including in-flight wifi and direct to cell service for some carriers.

Monday's launch was SpaceX's 66th Falcon 9 flight of the year and 660th completed mission its history.

On Sunday, the company also launched another Falcon 9 rocket from
Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. That mission carried 21
Starlink satellites into orbit alongside two Starshield satellites for
the U.S. military. It was the 10th flight for the Falcon 9 first-stage
booster on that flight, SpaceX said.

I have shirts that I purchased 5 years ago that I haven't worn 35 times.
Never in my wildest imagination did I ever think they would be able to
launch a single F9 1st stage booster 35 times.
