SpaceX Suspends Falcon 9 Launches Again After Third Anomaly In Two Months

SpaceX has suspended its Falcon 9 launches to investigate a problem that popped up with the rocket's second stage after yesterday's Crew 9 launch for NASA. The Falcon 9 took off from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station yesterday with a crew for the first time, with its second mission where two astronauts piloted the Crew Dragon spacecraft.

This cadence enabled an upcoming launch of the Europa Clipper mission, a satellite being sent to Jupiter's icy moon Europa.

A deorbit burn reduces the rocket's altitude to allow gravity to safely bring it back to Earth. SpaceX added that while the Falcon 9 second stage was able to successfully splash down in the ocean, it landed "outside of the targeted area."

Ahead of yesterday's launch, NASA's commercial crew program manager Steve Stich had shared that his agency
