SpaceX launched its first Falcon 9 rocket on June 4, 2010. Since then it has gone through five major revisions, leading to the current Block 5 model that is used to launch satellites, robotic planetary missions and astronauts. The most launched U.S. rocket in history, of its 500th missions, all but five were successful.

The Starlink 10-25 mission launched at 2:28 a.m. July 2 from Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 40. The Falcon 9 booster saw its 29th flight.
