SpaceX launched a new round of Starlink satellites into lower Earth orbit on its 11th launch of 2025, setting it on pace to break another one-year launch record.

The launch from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California happened at 6:07 a.m. PST, with the Falcon 9 rocket lighting up the morning sky with 23 satellites.

The first-stage rocket booster made its 23rd trip. It has taken part in 14 Starlink missions, SpaceX said in a statement. It returned safely back to Earth on the drone ship Of Course I Still Love You in the Pacific Ocean about eight minutes after the launch.

It marked SpaceX's 401st successful recovery of an orbital-class first-stage booster. The second stage released the satellites into over Earth Orbit a little more than an hour after launch. It was also the 118th successful Pacific Coast first-stage return.
