SpaceX warned residents in Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, and Ventura counties that they might hear “one or more sonic booms” during the launch.
After the launch, the first stage booster of the rocket landed on Of Course I Still Love You, a floating barge stationed in the Pacific Ocean.
The flight marked the seventh voyage for the first stage booster, which previously launched NROL-126, Transporter-12, SPHEREx, NROL-57, and two Starlink missions.
