As its name suggests, Transporter 13 will be the 13th mission in SpaceX's Transporter series. The company also runs another rideshare program called Bandwagon, which has two missions under its belt to date. SpaceX has launched more than 1,200 payloads for about 130 customers across both of these programs, according to the company.

"Following the successful landing, an off-nominal fire in the aft end of the rocket damaged one of the booster's landing legs which resulted in it tipping over."

SpaceX successfully launched a crew of four astronauts from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 7:03 p.m. ET to the International Space Station.
