SpaceX launched its second "block 5" Falcon 9 rocket, lighting up the skies over Florida's Space Coast. It carried the Telstar 18 Vantage broadband satellite, which will offer connectivity to customers in the Americas. The rocket's first stage came back to Earth on the droneship "Of Course I Still Love You" stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. Space X will launch a third block 5 Falcon 9 from California next week.
