SpaceX launched a rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base around 8 p.m. Monday after inclement weather postponed its launch last week.

The launch will use the company’s Falcon 9 rocket; the first-stage booster that will be used previously launched the NROL-87, NROL-85 and SARah-1 missions, SpaceX said.

Space Launch Complex 4 (SLC-4) is a launch and landing site at Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, U.S. It has two pads, both of which are used by SpaceX for Falcon 9, one for launch operations, and the other as Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4) for SpaceX landings. The complex was previously used by Atlas and Titan rockets between 1963 and 2005.
The mission carried satellites into low-Earth orbit.
