    TAMPA, Fla. (FLA) — SpaceX launched another set of Starlink rockets after weather conditions aborted the launch Wednesday.

    Thursday’s launch took place at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

    Florida ranked most fun state to visit in U.S., new study shows

    The Falcon 9 rocket sent 21 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit, which will include 13 satellites with direct-to-cell capabilities.

    After the launch, the first stage booster returned to a droneship located in the Atlantic.

    You can watch the launch in the video player above.
