Falcon 9

Falcon 9 is a two-stage rocket designed and manufactured by SpaceX, an American aerospace manufacturer and space transportation company. It is known for its ability to transport payloads to orbit, including satellites and supplies for the International Space Station (ISS). The rocket’s design emphasizes reusability, allowing the first stage to land back on Earth and be refurbished for multiple flights, which significantly reduces the cost of access to space. Falcon 9 is one of the most frequently launched rockets in the world, playing a key role in commercial spaceflight, NASA missions, and satellite deployments since its first flight in 2010.
