- A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket is lifted launched the U.S. Space Force called USSF-62 mission from California's Vandenberg Space Force Base on April 11, 2024 at 10:25 a.m. EDT (7:25 a.m. local California time; 1425 GMT).
According to Space.com, the USSF-62 will send the Weather System Follow-on - Microwave (WSF-M) satellite to low Earth orbit. WSF-M is a next-generation spacecraft that "will provide critical and actionable weather intelligence to military operations in all warfighting domains," according to BAE Systems, which developed and built the satellite.

I never get tired of the landings especially the boost back ones.
Great to hear John Insprucker on this launch.
Wow space x is another level
The great SpaceX team 🎉
Every day is a good day with a good weather 😊
STARSTRUCK..its just pure science fiction every tme the ship lands back on earth...
Should call these flights “I will be back in a minute.”
Hold My Beer!
Again stick that landing.. Go SpaceX
Dear John, we missed you!
A marvel of human ingenuity!
Can you imagine how much better these videos would be if they had someone like Darrel Waltrip commenting?
Bravo to SpaceX's team and to its leader Elon Mask.
never gets boring
The landing is always impressive to see. I remember the first time I saw one land, almost thought it was fake. lol
Thanks! First stage views, how cool is that, all the best
Noted that the second stage engine seems to have a plastic ring come off when ignited, which was missing for a few launches, though this ring seemed a few inches higher than the prior ones, which appeared on the lower edge of the rocket bell. Only using grid fins for guidance?? Seems nitrogen keeps being used also for first stage orientation.
Nitrogen in space where there's almost no air; grid fins once it hits dense air.
Ice. Solidified nitrogen
Hey George, Jim and JB! So glad we made it to the launch area even if it didn't go before dawn!
Onion Head😎
Still is great to watch ❤ lugul aam 👏
Still love those landings 😂
AWESOME & MAGNIFICENT!! ALWAYS THRILLS OUR MINDS & SOULS!! THANK YOU SO MUCH & EVERYONE IS SOOOOO PHENOMENAL!! 👍 👍 🙏 🙏
Love this.
I am hear to tell all of you enthusiasts that the sonic boom during the landing of the first stage was the biggest sonic boom I have heard in all of my 68 years. We were about 10 to 12 miles away from the launchpad perhaps a thousand feet above the Lompoc Valley when that blast hit us.
Monumental!😱
I live 40 miles south of Vandenberg, and the sonic booms are very loud here - in fact, they shake our apartment and scare our cats. This happens on a weekly basis - and Elon Musk says next year there willl be two or three launches per week. That means we can expect to have our apartment rattled 2 or 3 times per week. I'm all for technology, and support SpaceX - but sonic booms in the middle of the night are getting to be a bit much.
@@user-ld2dl3wp5b My brother lives off of Clark Road in Orcutt. He has been listening to those for decades! I live in the area that you describe.
Never gets old! ❤
How many landings will they do before someone else does one?
Why does it always need to make a complete 180 after lift off?
advanced Space Force "Weather" satellite. haha
It is not a weather "control" satellite. Dont believe the rumors....😊
The space force does indeed operate a weather satellite constellation called WSF. Its not a secret. Trust me the spy sats they just don't talk about at all lol.
4:35 explanation
@@7LexRBX be specific, 4:35 in the video or on the Plus count?

Crazy just how flawless the team has gotten this , makes it look so easy , it just goes to show exactly how much is wasted in bureaucracy
“Weather satellite “? Yeah, right! Lol
That is awesome ❤👏👏👏
Sem palavras
SpaceX RULES !!!!
LOL, A Space Force "weather satellite"....
Ha! That's what I was thinking... what does that even mean?! 'weather satellite'...?
China, Iran, N Korea and Russia need weather reports too, ya know. 😊
@@nightshift5201 😂😂😂

Watching these launches and re-entries still does not get old 👍
Live launces from SpaceX here on CZcams were the best - I know X (formerly known as) is Elon Musk's toy, but still...
Down so beautiful ❤😊
Heard a sonic boom this morning
It was a double boom, about 10 seconds after landing
It's odd they didn't send a couple rockets up during the solar eclipse, would have looked spectacular. 😊
😍😍
didn't show the statellite deploy
It did, but was ,about 55 minutes after launch. They did miss the fairing deploy in the feed. They lost the video link right at fairing deploy
@@stuartgray5877 I think the "loss" of the feed was pre-programmed
@@shouryabose5943when someone doesn't want them to show the satellite or its trajectory they say that on stream stop spreading conspiracy bullcrap
Another one 😂 .... well done SpaceX !!!❤
Shame the commentator, not John Insprucker, got the number of successful booster landings wrong. He said it was 279, when it is actually 295.
Going back to the Moon
(for more rocks)
Yup… real nice and expensive rocks too. Rocks that’ll turn China back into the 3rd world nation they’ve always been, and WEF members into beggars with their hands out asking for alms.
Elon Musk
fake cgi
This isn't fake
Will destroy the atmosphere 😢
No.
More up mass to space lost for a stupid landing.
It's being done to placate technology nomads like yourself. Excuse yourself before you spread more of your techno bile.
