SpaceX successfully sent 28 Starlink satellites into orbit during a night time launch from a California base.
The Falcon 9 booster, carrying the satellites, was initiated from Vandenberg Space Force Base.
The aim of the mission was to launch them into low-Earth orbit.
Following stage separation, the first stage landed on SpaceX's "Of Course I Still Love You" drone ship.
The drone ship was stationed in the Pacific Ocean.
