Washington. September 3. INTERFAX-The American company SpaceX plans to launch another batch of 60 Starlink Internet satellites into orbit on September 30, according to the data of the specialized website Space Launch Now.

The launch of the Falcon 9 heavy launch vehicle with mini-satellites to replenish the orbital grouping of the global Internet coverage of the Starlink system is supposed to be carried out for the first time from the launch pad at the US Space Force Vandenberg Air Base in California instead of the Cape Canaveral cosmodrome in Florida.

SpaceX itself has not yet announced the launch date, its message says that static fire tests of the Falcon 9 rocket engines were conducted the day before. "We plan to conduct the first launch of the Starlink mission from the west coast (USA) later this month, we will announce the date closer to the launch," the message says.

This will be the 31st launch of a group of Internet satellites into orbit since May 2019 as part of the Starlink project. The SpaceX orbital grouping already consists of 1738 spacecraft.

Currently, the company is the largest satellite operator in the world.
