The mission will fly on a flight proven first stage booster that has previously launched and landed six times. <\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-8020\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SpaceX has flown one prior mission on a flight proven booster that launched and landed six times. SpaceX\u2019s 16th Starlink mission was the first to test a Falcon 9 rocket first stage booster on a 7th flight attempt. Notably, SXM-7 will be the first customer mission making the same attempt. SpaceX launches Starlink satellites for its own satellite internet service. Losing first-party satellites to reach a new booster fleet milestone is easier than losing customer payloads to break a record. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SiriusXM agreeing to have its satellite go to space on a booster that will only be the second to reach seven flights shows confidence in SpaceX\u2019s ability to launch and recover its launch hardware. The rocket will lift off from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.<\/p>\n<p>\t<span class=\"outbrain-ad-label\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\t\t<script type=\"text\/plain\">\n\t\t\twindow.adSlotsConfig = window.adSlotsConfig || [];<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\tadSlotsConfig.push( {\n\t\t\t\tslotID: '\/1049447\/Outbrain',\n\t\t\t\tslotName: 'div-gpt-ad-outbrain-ad-8020',\n\t\t\t\tsizes: [300, 250],\n\t\t\t\tslotPosition: 'mid_article'\n\t\t\t} );\n\t\t<\/script><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image wp-block-image--obfuscated\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/spaceexplored.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ninetofive\/dist\/images\/default-spaceexplored-related-guide.png\" alt=\"Site default logo image\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Satellite maker Maxar recently published more details about the satellite going to orbit with SpaceX:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The powerful, Maxar-built SXM-7 satellite arrived at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on October 13, 2020.
