You couldn't just say 64? It's right there in TFS and TFA -- and "Launches 64" is shorter (and more accurate) than "Launches More Than 60". Yes, I realize that's the actual title of TFA (I checked), but seriously editors, you can edit stuff.
Most interesting, for me anyway, is that this was the 3rd launch for this booster. It was also recovered so conceivably it could be used again. Be very very interesting to know how the boosters structure is holding up to the stresses.
Well Musk described the Block 5 as the final version and the plan is ten launches before any major rework/disposal, so big problems after three would be underwhelming. It's probably more a question of figuring out how much is enough, what inspections and refurbishment is necessary. I hope they've now found some kind of protocol for it though, you'd think what they do between 3rd and 4th launch should be very similar to what they did between 2nd and 3rd launch. He doesn't have to rush one booster but I hope
"I heard Musk was arrested!"
"What for?"
"SpaceX launched a boat into orbit as a stunt."
"And?"
"He was arrested for shiplofting."

Cube Sat's deorbit by themselves in weeks. These things won't be up there cluttering up anything
