An attempt to recover the first stage with a landing on an off-shore droneship failed, ending a string of 24 successes in a row.
Another Starlink launch, with another 60 satellites on board, is planned for early Wednesday from the nearby Kennedy Space Center as SpaceX presses ahead with building out a globe-spanning constellation designed to deliver internet access to customers around the world.
What impact, if any, the landing mishap might have on Wednesday's flight is not yet known, CBS News reported.
