   B1051 flew, and was recovered, for the 10th time in the early morning   
   hours.  It lofted a new batch of Starlink satellites for SpaceX.  SpaceX   
   has stated that they will keep flying boosters as life leaders on   
   Starlink missions.  This allows the life leaders to fly without any   
   concerns from outside customers.   
      
   It seems like it wasn't long ago that some people were doubting that a   
   first stage could be flown and recovered 10 times.  Yet here we are in   
   2021 and SpaceX is routinely flying recovered boosters.
