A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket was launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base on Friday at 11:12 a.m.

The rocket is delivering 51 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit.
Starlink is SpaceX's high-speed broadband satellite internet service designed to reach rural and remote communities.
Following stage separation, the rocket's first stage booster landed on the "Of Course I Still Love You" drone ship stationed in the Pacific Ocean. The same booster was previously used in eight other missions.
