SpaceX has set a new record by completing 60 launches in 2022. At the start of the year, the company had aimed to reach approximately 50 launches, or one launch per week on average. However, with the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, many organizations that had previously booked Russian rockets for payload delivery turned to SpaceX as an alternative. This led to an increase in demand for launches from the company.
Yesterday, SpaceX completed its 60th launch of the year by launching a batch of 54 Starlink satellites and safely landing the Falcon 9 booster. This marks a significant achievement for the company, which has rapidly expanded its launch capabilities in recent years.
Elon previously said that they will try to push the launch limits and try to reach 60 launches and it seems for once Elon’s prediction/milestone came true with in the original time frame.
SpaceX Falcon 🚀 team is making excellent progress – aiming for 60 launches this year!

Founded in 2002 by CEO Elon Musk, SpaceX has become a leader in the commercial space industry. The company’s Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets have been used to launch a variety of payloads, including satellites, crewed missions to the International Space Station, and even a sports car. In addition to its launches, SpaceX has also made strides in reusable rocket technology, successfully landing and reusing multiple Falcon 9 boosters.
The success of SpaceX’s launches this year is a testament to the hard work and innovation of the company’s team. It also demonstrates the increasing reliance on private companies for space-related services. As SpaceX continues to make progress in the industry, it will be interesting to see what new achievements the company has in store for the future.
