SpaceX launched yet another batch of its Starlink internet satellites to orbit today (Aug. 22). A Falcon 9 rocket carrying 24 Starlink craft lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base in coastal California today at 1:04 p.m. EDT (1704 GMT; 10:04 a.m. local time).

SpaceX launches its latest batch of Starlink V2 Mini satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.

SpaceX could soon launch its third Falcon 9 rocket of the month from California, but it may be hard to see this time soaring over Arizona.

SpaceX's Starship is regarded as the world's largest rocket. How does it compare in height to other launch vehicles from SpaceX, ULA or Blue Origin?

Starship's 10th flight test will lift off from SpaceX's Starbase launch site in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. The company has yet to successfully launch and land the stainless-steel spacecraft, which is being engineered to be fully reusable and would be able to carry up to 100 people to deep space destinations.

But in the early hours of Sunday, SpaceX is also preparing to launch its 33rd commercial resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS) using its trusty Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft. The Dragon will be filled with more than 5,000 pounds of supplies for the crew aboard the ISS, which orbits around 250 miles above Earth.

Part of a government-industry partnership led by the U.S. Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office, the spaceplane will host tests of laser communications and a quantum inertial sensor
