Elon Musk's aerospace company kicked off its final mission of 2017 Friday night by launching a rocket into the sky over Southern California from the Vandenberg Air Force Base.

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 launched Iridium-4 mission, 10 satellites to low- Earth orbit for Iridium, from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, on 23 December 2017, at 01:27 UTC (22 December, at 17:27 PST). Falcon 9’s first stage for the Iridium-4 mission previously supported the Iridium-2 mission in June 2017 and SpaceX did not attempt to​ recover Falcon 9’s first stage after this launch.
