What a sweet victory it was. by @twotoabooth

Falcon 9 flew more missions in ONE YEAR than the entire Space Shuttle program flew in 30 years

• The entire Shuttle fleet:
135 missions from 1981–2011

• Falcon 9 in 2025 alone:
165 launches

SpaceX exceeded the Shuttle program’s entire lifetime mission count by 30 launches in just 12 months

And Falcon 9 also launched more times than every other orbital launch vehicle combined that year

At the Shuttle program’s historical average cadence, reaching 165 missions would have taken roughly 37 years

Falcon 9 did it in ONE

And the hardware reuse comparison is just as insane:

• Space Shuttle Discovery — 39 flights across roughly 27 years
• Falcon 9 booster B1067 — 37 flights in just over 5 years

B1067 first flew on June 3, 2021

By August 25, 2026, the same booster had launched and landed successfully 37 times

A single Falcon 9 first stage came within TWO flights of the most-flown Shuttle orbiter’s lifetime flight count in about one-fifth of the time

What once took decades of launch operations now happens within a single year of Falcon 9 cadence

SpaceX turned reusability into an industrial-scale operation by @twotoabooth

Week two of working in Memphis. We are camping in Arkansas. So glad to have everyone with me. Even though it feels way hotter than back home. Love you Maureen Mo Booth and all the kids. Apollo, Kira, Mia and the lovable Penelope. by @twotoabooth

Current @SpaceX Starship launch sites:

• Starbase, Texas
• Cape Canaveral, Florida
• Starbase, Louisiana

And this is just the beginning. SpaceX will almost certainly add more Starship launch sites in the years ahead. by @twotoabooth

Yes please. Could you imagine how that would turn out. Someone would get their ass handed to them. by @twotoabooth
