SpaceX launched another 20 mini-satellites into orbit

SpaceX reported that the Falcon 9 rocket successfully launched another batch of 20 mini-satellites to supplement the Internet coverage of the Starlink system.

The rocket was launched from the SLC-4E launch pad at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. About an hour later, the satellites went into orbit.

Recall that on October 15, the Falcon rocket launched two more groups of 43 mini-satellites to complement the orbital grouping of the Starlink system's global Internet coverage network.

SpaceX announced ambitious plans to launch five uncrewed Starship missions to Mars over the next two years.
