The SpaceX rocket carried 52 Starlink satellites online to orbit from California earlier Saturday.
The two-phase rocket falcon 9 left the Vandenberg Space Force Base at 4:41 am and passed through the Pacific.
The first phase of the Falcon returned and settled in the SpaceX droneship at sea. It was the eleventh launch and recovery of the stage.

The second phase continued into orbit and satellite transmission was confirmed, said launch analyst Youmei Zhou at SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne, California.
Starlink is a global satellite-based online platform SpaceX has been building for many years to bring internet access to the most neglected places in the world.
Saturday’s event was the 34th launch of Starlink, a nearly 2,000 satellite star in Earth orbit.
SpaceX was also scheduled to launch a Turkish communications satellite from Florida at 10:58 pm EST on Saturday.
