The Falcon 9 first stage booster assigned to launch as soon as March on SpaceX’s first mission with a previously-flown rocket has been test-fired at the company’s development facility in Central Texas.
The 15-story rocket stage completed the test-firing of its nine Merlin 1D engines in late January, according to SpaceX.
The rocket first flew in April 2016 on the CRS-8 resupply launch to the International Space Station.The same rocket stage is scheduled to loft the SES 10 communications satellite sometime next month, though no firm launch date has been announced.
