ORIGINAL (Thursday, 10:40 a.m.) - SpaceX is gearing up for its latest launch out of Vandenberg Space Force Base on Friday morning.
The company is planning to launch a Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 4 East at 8:44 a.m.
The rocket will reportedly deliver 24 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit.
A few minutes after takeoff, officials say the rocket's first stage will land back down on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship stationed in the Pacific Ocean.
A live webcast of the launch will begin around 8:40 a.m. on the SpaceX website.
This will mark the third launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base this month and the 41st launch from the base this year.
