The numbered hardovod B1067 refers to the SpaceX story and the conquest of the universe chaining a record number of missions. He had never used so much Falcon 9 missile floor.
It is worth it that it was worth the tweet Elon Musk. On July 2, 2025, the US billionaire welcomed a good return to the land on the first floor of the Falcon 9 missile, whose race ended in an ocean boat, off the American coast. ” 29 landing for one driving substance Shouted.
If it does not say it explicitly, it is a record for Falcon 9, whose booster is very close to the symbolic cap of 30 repetitions. Here it was mobilized for a routine mission of transporting another clump of 27 satellites Starlink V2 mini, which will join the low orbit around the Earth, where there are already about 7,000 already active.
The booster is approaching 30 uses
The model of this first floor, identified by the B1067 code, entered the service for the first time on June 3, 2021 and then served:

We can realize that this booster is approximately re -used every 54 days. Above all, these chronological differences reveal something else: the measure has been relatively accelerated over time. In the first half of these shots there was a gap between two shots around 64 days. In the second half, this gap decreased to just over 43 days.
The following graph allows you to view the tempo over time.
Here most of the missions concerned the orbit of the Starlink satellite (17 flights). There are also delivery operations of an international space station or the transport of astronauts as well as conventional commercial services for customers who need to send satellites on the ground.
If the B1067 propeller has in mind that it has a record on SpaceX, the other boosters are not far from its furrow. We think that especially the first floors B1063 and B1071, which are used 26 times or even in B1069 (25 times). Four additional powers are above 20 uses.
A success that inspires
This rhythm of use shows that the capacity of SpaceX has a reliable launcher that will serve regularly after completing a routine control. It is also a good way for American society in real conditions to see the wear of the first floor when it comes to its operational career.
This is evidence that SpaceX bet, both technological and industrial, is won. Its missiles have a very high level of reliability and are able to return to Earth automatically after their mission, allowing the company to be very competitive on the price market, due to the price defiant and high availability.
A success that eventually convinced Europe to respond and be inspired by this strategy. Several decisive projects for the future of old continental missiles count on repeatedly usable launchers and can also return to Earth – this is the case of Ariane Next, replacing Ariane 6 or small Maia, as well as the Themis and Callisto projects.
