On Wednesday, May 25 at 2:35 p.m. ET, Falcon 9 launched the Transporter-5, SpaceX’s fifth dedicated smallsat rideshare program mission, from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. This was the eighth launch and landing of this Falcon 9 stage booster, which previously supported launch of Crew-1, Crew-2, SXM-8, CRS-23, IXPE, one Starlink mission, and Transporter-4. Following stage separation, SpaceX landed Falcon 9’s first stage on Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

On board this flight were 59 spacecraft, including including CubeSats, microsats, non-deploying hosted payloads, and orbital transfer vehicles.

    Four years ago this week my mother passed away. As I held her hand until her last breath, I struggled with how I could celebrate her life in such a meaningful way to honor her memory. My mother has always loved science, space and longed to journey among the stars. Today, I witnessed her deepest life-long wish thanks to Celestis and SpaceX. A portion of her cremated remains were integrated to the Varisat-1C satellite and loaded to the SpaceX Falcon 9 spacecraft. The payload (one of the 59 onboard) separated from the spacecraft at T+ 1:05:38 (one hour, five minutes, 38 seconds) into the flight. It was incredibly moving and emotional to watch her fulfill her space journey; she is now flying among the stars. 💫 Fly, fly precious one. Your endless journey has just begun. Enjoy the beautiful universe, mom. I hope it is everything you envisioned it would be.

    The pace of these launches every few days is simply amazing. SpaceX people hold to a very high standard of performance. Maybe the best workforce ever assembled.
  • No matter how many times you see this, it's always amazing. I always think.. "it's coming in too fast!" or "the legs haven't deployed soon enough!"... and yet, it's perfect every time.

    Amazing incredible views of launch, stage sep, landing, satellite deploys and our Earth below from the beautiful tropics to the north pole this is why I love SpaceX's streams.

    There’s so many launches these days that I can’t even keep up.. Amazing.

    Kate Tice is so professional in her presentation, as flawless as the launch!

    Watching SpaceX launches never gets old. You have some brilliant engineers to keep those rockets flying again and again. It's fun watching something as reliable as a Swiss watch as getting to space is very hard - but SpaceX make it look easy!
  • They make landing that booster look so easy. Ten years ago this was science fiction.
  • That camera on the booster, all the way too the ground is incredible. I was worried they were going to cut to the wide shot instead. Nope, they just side by side the shots. So good. The contrast between this and starliners launch is a vast chasm.

    What's amazing to me is that you can just see and almost feel how fast the 1st stage is going as it's about 15km in altitude upon landing. It's still going so incredibly fast, but man, how amazing is that!!! Great job SpaceX!!!!!

    The video coverage keeps getting better and better with every launch, landing, etc. Today's landing takes me back to Falcon Heavy. One of the most incredible things I've ever seen.

    For as exciting as the droneship landings are, there's something inherently special about the LZ land landings. Right on the money again SpaceX. So much talent on display time and time again.

    Nice to see Kate on the broadcast from time to time as she was running the launch commentary from the beginnings of the SpaceX hegemony.
