The Air Force Research Laboratory says its cargo pods flown on SpaceX’s Starfall capsule during Bandwagon-5 were recovered after a Pacific splashdown, a step in its rocket cargo program.
After a one-day weather delay, Falcon 9 launched Bandwagon-5 on October 20 with 31 customer payloads and SpaceX’s second Starfall reentry capsule, and booster B1085 landed on its 19th flight.
SpaceX’s Bandwagon-5 Falcon 9 rideshare is set to launch October 19 from Cape Canaveral with 32 payloads, including the second flight of its Starfall reentry capsule.
