SpaceX's 700th Falcon Rocket Launch Completes SES O3b mPOWER Constellation

SpaceX launched the 700th Falcon-family rocket in company history (687 Falcon 9 plus 13 Falcon Heavy) on September 13, 2026, lifting the final three Boeing-built O3b mPOWER satellites from SLC-40 Cape Canaveral for SES — completing the operator's 13-satellite medium-Earth-orbit broadband constellation. Booster B1080 flew its 29th mission and landed on the droneship 'A Shortfall of Gravitas,' the 661st successful Falcon booster landing overall. It was also the 400th orbital launch from SLC-40 in the pad's history.
