California: The American company "SpaceX" launched 24 "Starlink" satellites into space as part of its ongoing efforts to expand satellite internet coverage around the world. According to Oman News Agency, the "Falcon 9" rocket lifted off from the space launch complex at Vandenberg Base in the State of California, carrying the satellites to a low Earth orbit. The first stage of the rocket successfully landed on an uncrewed landing ship stationed in the Pacific Ocean after the rocket stages separated, while the upper stage continued its mission of transporting and deploying the satellites into the predetermined orbit. This operation comes within the framework of SpaceX's continuous plan to enhance the satellite internet network, which provides satellite communication services and currently includes more than 10,000 satellites in orbit.
