— SpaceX: Facts about Elon Musk's spaceflight company OneWeb has now flown twice with SpaceX and once with NSIL; 36 of its satellites went up on an Indian Launch Vehicle Mark-3 this past October, and a Falcon 9 lofted another 40 last month. Monday was quite a busy day for SpaceX. The CRS-26 Dragon capsule departed the International Space on Monday afternoon, ending a six-week stay at the orbiting lab. The Dragon will splash down off the Florida coast on Wednesday (Jan. 11), if all goes according to plan. The action will continue on Tuesday (Jan. 10) for SpaceX. The company plans to launch 51 of its own Starlink internet satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California at 11:02 p.m. EST on Tuesday (0402 GMT on Jan. 11). Editor's note: This story was updated on Jan. 8 with news of the new launch date of Jan. 9. The launch was originally targeted for the night of Jan. 8, but SpaceX pushed it back a day to finish prelaunch processing. It was updated again at 3:30 p.m. EST on Jan. 9 to include news of Monday's planned Starlink launch and the planned Monday departure of the Dragon cargo spacecraft. It was updated again at 12:10 a.m. EST on Jan. 10 with news of successful launch and rocket landing, then again at 1:40 a.m. EST with news of satellite deployment.
