SpaceX launches 56 Starlink satellites, lands rocket at sea.

SpaceX launched another big batch of its Starlink internet satellites and landed the returning rocket at sea early Thursday morning (May 4).

A Falcon 9 rocket carrying 56 Starlink spacecraft lifted off from Florida's Cape Canaveral Space Force Station Thursday at 3:31 a.m. EDT (0731 GMT).

The Falcon 9's first stage came back to Earth about 8.5 minutes after liftoff, touching down on SpaceX's A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which was stationed in the Atlantic Ocean off the Florida coast.

It was the seventh launch and landing for this particular booster, according to a SpaceX mission description.
