SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Florida’s Cape Canaveral early Saturday, 26 July, carrying another batch of Starlink satellites under the company’s Starlink 10-26 mission designation. The predawn ascent produced a distinctive ‘jellyfish’ plume and generated noctilucent clouds that were widely photographed along the Space Coast. Observers also reported a successful booster return, with the first-stage exhaust trail forming an arch in the sky as it manoeuvred back toward its landing zone. Separately, SpaceX’s Crew Dragon Endeavour, flying Axiom Mission 1, was nearing arrival at the International Space Station later in the morning, according to mission imagery released by NASA.
