A Falcon 9 rocket carrying 26 Starlink spacecraft lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base on California's central coast Monday at 9:15 p.m. EDT (6:15 p.m. local California time; 0115 GMT on May 13).

SpaceX early Tuesday launched another batch of Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit from Florida's east coast.

It was a still early morning in Florida, but high over NASA's Kennedy Space Centre, history was in the making. SpaceX launched another group of Starlink satellites — quietly breaking its own reuse record in the process.
