Following stage separation, about eight minutes after liftoff, SpaceX will aim to land the rocket's first stage booster on a droneship in the Pacific Ocean. SpaceX reports this will be the rocket booster's 30th flight.
The rocket will reportedly deliver 27 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit.
According to base officials, this launch will support Department of War communications.
