BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. – SpaceX launches 29 more Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit aboard a Falcon 9 rocket on Wednesday evening.
The rocket lifted off from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 8:31 p.m.
SpaceX said the mission will mark the fifth flight for the Falcon 9 first stage booster, which previously supported the Ax-4, Crew-11, NG-23, and a prior Starlink mission.
