SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base early Sunday, carrying 22 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit. The mission added another batch to the company’s expanding internet constellation.
The launch lifted off successfully from California’s central coast and continued SpaceX’s steady cadence of Starlink deployments. The satellites are designed to join the network that provides broadband service in areas with limited connectivity.
Starlink remains a key part of SpaceX’s commercial business and a major source of regular launches for the Falcon 9. The company has used frequent missions like this to build out its satellite fleet across orbit.
Reuters reported the launch as successful, with the rocket delivering its payload as planned. The mission adds to the growing number of Starlink spacecraft already operating in low-Earth orbit.
