SpaceX launched another set of Starlink satellites Aug. 12. A Falcon 9 lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California at 5:40 pm EDT (2140 GMT) and deployed 46 Starlink satellites into sun-synchronous orbit about an hour later. The launch is the third to "Shell 3", a layer of Starlink satellites in high-inclination orbits to serve polar regions.
