Tech mogul Elon Musk‘s SpaceX is set to launch its Falcon 9 rocket fixing the issues of engine failure during the flight on July 11. The company posted on X that the Falcon 9 returned to flight with 23 Starlink satellites to the Earth. The investigation was further completed as the engineers removed the sense line that jinxed the engine and failed due to liquid oxygen release after the takeoff.

Earlier this month, SpaceX jinxed its rocket mission for the first time in a decade as it may have fallen through an orbit so low to the atmosphere that it expected to flare. The Falcon 9 rocket was headed up from Vandenberg Space Force Base in Santa Barbara region which is situated in California.

It was loaded with 20 Starlink and reportedly collapsed after an hour failing the mission. The upper-stage engine’s misfunction and sudden liquid oxygen led to its fall. Flight controllers attempted to boost the Starlink with onboard ion thrusters and were able to contact half of the satellites. But in vain the rocket crossed 84 miles above Earth not even more than half the planned altitude.

In a post on X, SpaceX stated that the maximum available thrust was implausible to raise the satellites successfully, despite the effort, the satellites return and may burn up. Later, The company rectified the issues and launched the vehicle again. There are more than 6,000 Starlink satellites that provide internet service to the most outback areas orbiting the Earth.
