A Falcon 9 rocket liftoff from Space Launch Complex 4-East at Vandenberg, a military base on California’s Central Coast northwest of Los Angeles.
SpaceX’s 18th Falcon 9 mission of the year, a record for a commercial launch company, The 10 satellites inside the rocket’s payload fairing will join 30 others launched by three Falcon 9 missions earlier this year, pushing Iridium’s voice and data relay network over the halfway point in deploying a next-generation fleet of 66 spacecraft, plus spares, to replace an aging constellation dating back to the late 1990s and early 2000s.
It will take about an hour for the Falcon 9 rocket to release the 10 satellites one at a time in a polar orbit 388 miles (625 kilometers) above Earth. This launch will be the first time Iridium has elected to put its satellites on a previously-flown Falcon 9 booster. The first stage set for launch from Vandenberg first flew June 25 on a previous mission for Iridium, making the Virginia-based telecom company the first customer to use the same Falcon 9 booster twice.

Knock Knock….Hello…..Your in the Matrix everything you have been led to believe is FAKE!…..lol
Iridium is a satellite phone company, they are changing their satellite constellation with spaceX, very expensive, available absolutely worldwide, this new system will track all ships and all airplanes
I was in Northeatern Arizona on my ranch and saw it.
Why does it look like there's three moons
Yes, Iridium is a metal with the atomic number 77 and Motorola, who developed the Iridium satellite had planned to launch 77 spacecraft to give worldwide coverage. They never got all 77 in orbit (or built, I believe) before the program was sold off.
I was in Tucson that day it was clear view just like you had in LA, I didn’t know what it was first then I saw on news. It was pretty cool experience
sweeeeet…..thanks man..!!!
do you mine bitcoins with your solar installation ?
This is a flat Earth as u can see clearly the lunch going side ways not straight up !
Falcons doesnt fall into ocean… it always lands…
We saw it fine in Az…didn't upload didn't care
iridium :the chemical element of atomic number 77, a hard, dense silvery-white metal
not a rocket. Nice try trying to cover it up.. Almost as good as NASA bullshit. Dont believe the brainwashing deception. Pathetic
thought it was only the second time to reuse a rocket.
