SpaceX completed its 100th mission of 2026 with a Falcon 9 launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base carrying 24 Starlink satellites into low Earth orbit.

The milestone was reached in August for the third consecutive year that SpaceX has exceeded 100 annual launches. Most of this year’s missions have supported Starlink, highlighting the company’s increasingly high launch cadence and vertically integrated satellite deployment strategy.
