The launch is in support of SpaceX’s Starlink satellite system.
Wednesday’s launch comes after SpaceX’s 9th test launch Tuesday night of its Starship mega rocket.
SpaceX said this launch will be the 19th flight for the rocket’s first-stage booster, which previously launched Ax-2, Euclid, Ax-3, CRS-30, SES ASTRA 1P, NG-21, and 12 Starlink missions.
After the launch, SpaceX landed the first-stage booster again on its “Just Read the Instructions” drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
