SpaceX Launches 28 Starlink Satellites from California Coast

SpaceX successfully launched a new batch of 28 Starlink internet satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base on California’s central coast on November 6, 2025 (UTC). The mission utilized a Falcon 9 rocket, deploying the satellites into low Earth orbit.

This launch underscores SpaceX’s relentless pace in building out its rapidly expanding Starlink constellation. The company aims to provide high-speed internet access to more regions globally, with these regular satellite deployments being crucial to achieving that objective.

The mission also demonstrated the continued effectiveness of SpaceX’s reusable rocket technology, as the first stage booster of the Falcon 9 successfully executed a vertical landing on an autonomous drone ship in the Pacific Ocean post-launch.
