SpaceX sent a Falcon 9 rocket carrying 22 Starlink Internet satellites into low Earth orbit Monday evening, much to the awe of many San Diegans.
The rocket was launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base, west of Santa Barbara.
The launch was originally scheduled for last Thursday (March 28), but was postponed for several days due to wet weather.
Rocket launches can be seen across San Diego County on April 1, 2024.
