Los Angeles: US private space company SpaceX launched 48 more Starlink satellites into orbit on Friday.

A Falcon 9 rocket lifted off at 12:29 p.m. Pacific Time from the Space Launch Complex at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.

Soon after the launch, Falcon 9’s first stage landed on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship stationed in the Pacific Ocean.

Starlink will deliver high-speed broadband internet to locations where access has been unreliable, expensive, or completely unavailable, according to SpaceX.
