Apollo 11 launch as broadcast live by NASA on July 16, 1969

Look back on the Oct. 30 launch of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket with this gallery of photos showing the 229-foot-tall launcher lifting off from pad 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

NASA’s Perseverance rover released the Ingenuity helicopter onto the surface of Mars Saturday, leaving behind the experimental flying drone to survive on its own power until attempting a historic hop in the Red Planet’s thin carbon dioxide atmosphere around April 11.

Watch a replay of Monday’s Falcon 9 launch as seen from the Kennedy Space Center press site, a viewpoint around three miles from pad 39A.
