The launch sent 20 micro-satellites into Earth's low orbit, reportedly expanding internet access across the globe.
SpaceX says Saturday's launch was the seventh time the company used the Falcon 9 rocket's first stage booster in a mission.
The booster successfully landed back on the Central Coast base several minutes after takeoff.
