On Thursday morning, January 13th, SpaceX launched the Transporter-3 mission from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, successfully carrying 105 payloads to space atop a Falcon 9 rocket. It was this booster's tenth round trip to space, delivering a patchwork of smallsats and nanosatellites to a sun-synchronous orbit before returning home for a touchdown at Landing Zone 1 on Florida's Space Coast.

19 nations were represented on the mission including Argentina, Brazil, Ukraine, Nepal, Turkey, and Lithuania.

This Falcon 9, booster B1058, launched for the first time on May 30th, 2020, carrying NASA Astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley to the International Space Station aboard Endeavour Dragon on the historic DM-2 mission.

Supercluster photographers Erik Kuna and Jenny Hautmann were on-site for the Transporter-3 liftoff from SpaceX's Launch Complex 40 and captured both the flight and speedy return of the Falcon 9.
