Starlink 4-4 marks the 98th successful Falcon landing, the first time SpaceX has performed a non-polar Starlink launch from its West Coast pad, and the first time a Falcon 9 booster has completed 11 orbital-class launches and spaceflights. Up next, SpaceX is scheduled to launch Turkey’s Turksat 5B geostationary communications satellite out of its Cape Canaveral, Florida LC-40 pad. Falcon 9 could lift off as early as 10:58 pm EDT, Saturday, December 18th (03:58 UTC 19 Dec) – just 15 hours after Starlink 4-4. Set in September 2021, SpaceX’s current record is two launches in ~44 hours.

Its a very impressive achievement.

Very impressive.

I’m glad their landings are getting clearer, that was frustrating, also some people think it’s all fake of course. :^)

How do you fake landings with everyone watching?

You yell, "it's fake! It's so fake! Look how fake it is! CGI! Fish eye lens! Arrrrgh!" ;^) /s

THIS VIDEO IS SATIRE! IT'S A JOKE. I KNOW IT'S REAL.

UPDATE: There seem to be three types of people commenting on this video.

1. Those who think I'm serious and think I'm an idiot. These people obviously have no sense of humor and did not learn the word Satire in high school.

2. Flat Earthers who think I am on their side and at some point realize I am mocking them. Then they get super pissed and resort to name calling. Thanks for the engagement.

3. And those who find the humor in this video and understand that it's just for fun.

Fun fact: The James Webb Space Telescope is so powerful that it can detect the heat signature of a bee from a distance of 500,000 kilometers.

That’s the distance between Earth and the Moon! Exploding head

An Ariane 5 launch vehicle (Ariane Flight VA256) launched the James Webb Space Telescope from Ariane Launch Complex No. 3 (ELA 3) at Guiana Space Centre in Kourou, French Guiana, on 25 December 2021, at 12:20 UTC (09:20 local time, 07:20 EST, 13:20 CET). The James Webb Space Telescope (sometimes called JWST or Webb) is a large infrared telescope with a 6.5-meter primary mirror. Intended as the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope, JWST was funded by three space agencies: NASA, ESA, CSA. The telescope will be 100 times more powerful, and will incorporate improved and different technologies to capture 70% more light. [Credit: Arianespace/NASA]
