CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Another batch of Starlink internet satellites is on its way to orbit after a brilliant evening launch from Florida.The Falcon 9 rocket lifted off just after 6 p.m., about 45 minutes after sunset.
As the booster climbed into the clear twilight sky, the exhaust plume caught the light of the still-setting sun, creating a spectacular cloud visible for hundreds of miles across the state.While the launch was visually interesting, it was all but routine in most other ways for SpaceX.
