SpaceX launches rocket with Starlink satellites

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida on Friday morning, carrying a new group of 53 Starlink satellites into orbit. The rocket's first stage booster returned to Earth, landing cleanly on a drone ship.

It was just the latest development in what was already a busy day for SpaceX. Early Friday morning, a SpaceX Dragon capsule splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico near Tampa, Florida.

It safely brought back to Earth four astronauts who had ended their six month stay on the International Space Station a little less than 24 hours earlier.
