SpaceX launched another set of Starlink satellites Monday evening. A Falcon 9 lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California at 10:30 pm EDT (0230 GMT Tuesday) after a few days of weather-related delays. The rocket deployed 22 Starlink satellites into orbit. As with another launch last month, the twilight launch was visible across southern California and Arizona as the plume was backlit by the sun.
