List of Falcon 9 first-stage boosters

Left to right: Falcon 9 v1.0, v1.1, v1.2 "Full Thrust", Falcon 9 Block 5, Falcon Heavy, and Falcon Heavy Block 5.

A Falcon 9 first-stage booster is a reusable rocket booster used on the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy orbital launch vehicles manufactured by SpaceX. The manufacture of first-stage booster constitutes about 60% of the launch price of a single expended Falcon 9 (and three of them over 80% of the launch price of an expended Falcon Heavy), which led SpaceX to develop a program dedicated to recovery and reuse of these boosters for a significant decrease in launch costs.[citation needed] After multiple attempts, some as early as 2010, at controlling the re-entry of the first stage after its separation from the second stage, the first successful controlled landing of a first stage occurred on 22 December 2015, on the first flight of the Full Thrust version. Since then, Falcon 9 first-stage boosters have been landed and recovered 299 times out of 310 attempts, including synchronized recoveries of the side-boosters of most Falcon Heavy flights.

In total 42 recovered boosters have been refurbished and subsequently flown at least a second time, with a record of 20 missions and landings carried by a single booster. SpaceX intentionally limited Block 3 and Block 4 boosters to flying only two missions each,[1][2] but the company indicated in 2018 that they expected the Block 5 versions to achieve ten flights, each with only minor refurbishment. This milestone was first achieved by Booster B1051 on the Starlink-27 mission in 2021.[3]

All boosters in Block 4 and earlier have been retired, expended, or lost. The last flight of a Block 4 booster was in June 2018. Since then all boosters in the active fleet are Block 5.

Booster names are a B followed by a four-digit number. The first Falcon 9 version, v1.0, had boosters B0001 to B0007. All following boosters were numbered sequentially starting at B1001, the number 1 standing for first-stage booster.

List of boosters[edit]

v1.0 and v1.1[edit]

These boosters were the first two major versions of the Falcon 9. These boosters looked very different from the more recent models. They were much smaller and had much less power. On the maiden flight and second flight of V 1.0, SpaceX included basic recovery hardware (parachutes) to try and recover the booster. However, as the boosters broke up on re-entry due to aerodynamic forces both times, SpaceX gave up on parachutes and decided to pursue propulsive landings instead. First came some controlled water landings, then came the attempts on the drone ship "Just Read the Instructions 1". None of these boosters were recovered or survived landing after an orbital launch. Two test devices made several short flights each.

Full Thrust up to Block 4[edit]

Falcon 9 Full Thrust (or sometimes called Falcon 9 version 1.2) was the first version of the Falcon 9 to successfully land. Changes included a larger fuel tank, uprated engines and supercooled propellant and oxidizer to increase performance. Five different versions of Full Thrust have been produced, Block 1 to 4 (all retired) are found in this list while the active Block 5 is listed separately. Block 4 was a test version that included new hardware like titanium grid fins later used for the next and final major version of the Falcon 9, Block 5. Flights of all Falcon 9 rockets up to Block 4 were limited to 2 flights only, with a total of 14 second flights of these variants. The boosters were either retired or expended after that second launch.

Since no data is provided, Falcon 9 boosters listed as simply "FT" (Full Thrust) denote Blocks 1 to 3, while Block 4 is listed as "FT Block 4". All boosters are Falcon 9 variants, unless otherwise noted. Boosters B1023 and B1025 were Falcon 9 boosters, which were converted to Falcon Heavy side boosters for the Falcon Heavy test flight.

Block 5[edit]

There are three booster types: Falcon 9 (F9), Falcon Heavy core (FH core) boosters, and Falcon Heavy side (FH side) boosters. Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy side boosters are reconfigurable to each other. A Falcon Heavy core booster is manufactured with structural supports for the side boosters and cannot be converted to a Falcon 9 booster or Falcon Heavy side booster.[citation needed] The interstage mounting hardware was changed after B1056. The newer interstage design features fewer pins holding the interstage on, reducing the amount of work needed to convert a Falcon 9 booster to a Falcon Heavy side booster.[83]

Block 5 is the latest iteration of the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy boosters. Changes include a stronger heat shield, upgraded engines, new carbon composite sections (landing legs, engine sections, raceways, RCS thrusters and interstage), retractable landing legs, titanium grid fins, and other additions that simplify refurbishment and allow for easier reusability.

Block 5 boosters were initially certified for 10 launches[84] which was increased to 15. A "deep-dive" examination has been performed on Falcon 9 B1058 and B1060 after their 15th flight,[85] and SpaceX certified Falcon 9 boosters for 20 missions. SpaceX has further increased the Falcon re-flight certification to 40 flights per booster, since 20 flights of some boosters are reached.[86][87]

B1058, first launched on 30 May 2020 (Crew Dragon Demo-2), was the only booster with NASA logos. On 11 September 2022, during a Starlink mission, it became the first to complete fourteen launches and landings to become the fleet leader. With another 5 Starlink missions, B1058 achieved 15, 16, 17, 18 & 19 launches and landings, the first to do so. On 13 April 2024, B1062 became a veteran Guinness Book of World Records holder Falcon 9 booster as it set a new record of 20 launches and landings to becomethe new fleet leader.[88] Amongst all B5 boosters, B1058 is the booster with most spacecrafts (869) launched to orbit and along with the record for most spacecraft mass launched to orbit by a single booster, that is, of ~262,000 kg (578,000 lb). B1060 is the oldest and earliest launched of the active Falcon 9 boosters.

As of 5 April 2024, SpaceX used a total of 38 new B5 boosters, of which 20 are no longer active (13 have been expended, 5 have been lost due to failed landings, and 2 have been lost during recovery).

  1. ^ means the booster has this logo on it. The logo is not being used in this table to signify that the booster is owned by NASA nor does it signify the booster is exclusively or partly used by NASA.
  2. ^ Entries with colored background and ♺ symbol denote flights using refurbished boosters from previous flights.
  3. ^ Mission names are presented in parentheses when applicable. indicates crewed launch under Commercial Crew Program (CCP). Adjacent logos are mission patches.
  4. ^ B1048 had a Merlin engine fail during launch, meaning the engine failed to light up for entry, and the booster crashed.
  5. ^ B1049 flew with a Test/Spare Block 4 interstage on its last flight since it donated its interstage to B1052 after its penultimate flight.[83][103][104]
  6. ^ B1050 performed a controlled ocean landing near the coast, and was then recovered from the water and scrapped for parts.
  7. ^ B1052 used the interstage from B1049 donated after that booster's penultimate flight.[83][103][126]
  8. ^ Falcon Heavy core B1055 landed safely, but later fell over on the drone ship platform during transit back to Cape Canaveral in rough seas. At the time, the engines were described as perhaps recoverable, the status of the other components of the booster was not stated.[137]
  9. ^ Despite making a successful landing, de-tanking and heading back home, the stage fell over on the drone ship platform during transit back to Cape Canaveral in rough seas, high winds and waves. This is still considered a successful landing as the stage damage occurred while in transport.[143]
  10. ^ Falcon 9 B1059 had a hole in one of its "boots" (protective thermal blankets) which lead to one of the engines catching fire and shutting down during re-entry and the booster impacted the ocean.

Statistics[edit]

Rockets from the Falcon 9 family have been launched 334 times over 14 years, resulting in 332 full successes (99.4%), one in-flight failure (SpaceX CRS-7), and one partial success (SpaceX CRS-1 delivered its cargo to the International Space Station (ISS), but a secondary payload was stranded in a lower-than-planned orbit). Additionally, one rocket and its payload AMOS-6 were destroyed before launch in preparation for an on-pad static fire test. The active version, Falcon 9 Block 5, has flown 269 missions, all full successes.

In 2022 Falcon 9 set a new record of 60 launches (all successful) by the same launch vehicle type in a calendar year. The previous record was held by Soyuz-U, which had 47 launches (45 successful) in 1979.[229] In 2023 Falcon 9 family set a new record of 96 launches (all successful) by the same launch vehicle family in a calendar year. The previous record was held by R-7 rocket family, which had 63 launches (61 successful) in 1980.[a][230]

The first rocket version Falcon 9 v1.0 was launched five times from June 2010 to March 2013, its successor Falcon 9 v1.1 15 times from September 2013 to January 2016, and the Falcon 9 Full Thrust 305 times from December 2015 to present. The latest Full Thrust variant, Block 5, was introduced in May 2018.[231] While the Block 4 boosters were only flown twice and required several months of refurbishment, Block 5 versions were certified to sustain 10 flights and have since been recertified for 15 and then 20 flights per booster.[3] SpaceX is currently planning to further increase the Falcon re-flight certification to 40 flights per booster, once 20 flights is reached.[232]

The Falcon Heavy derivative consists of a strengthened Falcon 9 first stage as its center core, with two additional Falcon 9 first stages attached and used as boosters, both of which are fitted with an aerodynamic nosecone instead of a usual Falcon 9 interstage.[233]

Falcon 9 first-stage boosters landed successfully in 299 of 310 attempts (96.5%), with 274 out of 278 (98.6%) for the Falcon 9 Block 5 version. A total of 271 re-flights of first stage boosters have all successfully launched their payloads.

  1. ^ There was also an on-pad explosion; sometimes it is counted as a launch, resulting in 64 launches.
  2. ^ Full Thrust Boosters B1023 and B1025 were converted to side boosters for the Falcon Heavy test flight of February 2018. This configuration will never fly again, as future Falcon Heavy missions have used a modified variant of Block 5 modules as side boosters.

Full Thrust booster flight counts[edit]

This chart lists how often boosters were flown. It is limited to the Full Thrust versions as previous versions were never recovered intact. The entries for Block 5 include active boosters that can make additional flights in the future. Blocks 1–3 made 27 flights with 18 boosters (1.5 flights per booster), Block 4 made 12 flights with 7 boosters (1.7 flights per booster). As of 18 April 2024, Block 5 made 269 flights with 27 boosters (10.0 flights per booster) with Falcon 9.
