SpaceX launched another batch of 27 Starlink V2 Mini satellites into low-Earth orbit on Friday from California.

The Falcon 9 flight was delayed from Thursday night. No reason was given for the scrubbing.

The rocket lifted off 3:32 p.m. PDT from Vandenberg Space Force Base's Pad 4E.

A little more than eight minutes after liftoff, the first stage booster landed on the droneship, "Of Course I Still Love You," in the Pacific Ocean. It was the 450th time a Falcon 9 landed successfully from California or Florida.

This is the 18th flight for this first-stage booster, including 14 Starlink missions.

The previous time SpaceX launched Starlink satellites from California was May 16.

The next scheduled launch of Starlink satellites from Florida is 1:19 p.m. EDT Saturday at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station Pad 40.
