The launch window will reportedly open at 10:49 a.m.
Base officials say it's likely people in the area will hear a sonic boom when the rocket's first stage booster lands back on land at Vandenberg.

This launch, known as the Transporter-12 mission, will deliver multiple small satellites into low-Earth orbit.
