SpaceX launches Falcon 9 rocket carrying 54 upgraded satellites from Cape Canaveral
SpaceX launched its Falcon 9 rocket carrying 54 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida early Wednesday morning. The satellites were said to be the first of the company’s upgraded network sent into orbit, which SpaceX can now deploy to new orbits for faster service. Footage captured by Florida resident John Concilus shows the early-morning launch from Cape Canaveral Space Space Force Station.
