United States Space Force-44 Falcon Heavy Mission | SpaceX

United States Space Force-44 Falcon Heavy Mission | SpaceX

On Tuesday, November 1, 2022, at 9:41 a.m. ET, Falcon Heavy launched the USSF-44 mission to a geosynchronous Earth orbit from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

This was the first launch and landing of these Falcon Heavy side boosters, which will be prepared for re-flight on a future U.S. Space Force mission later this year.

Following booster separation, Falcon Heavy’s two side boosters (B1064 and B1065) landed at SpaceX’s Landing Zones 1 and 2 (LZ-1 and LZ-2) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Due to mission requirements, Falcon Heavy’s center core (B1066) was not planned to be recovered.
