SpaceX to launch classified Space Force mission from California

SpaceX is targeting 4:47 p.m. Saturday to launch the classified USSF-366 mission for the U.S. Space Force. Utilizing a Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base, the launch may produce sonic booms and visible streaks across the sky for Southern California residents. If the initial attempt is scrubbed, SpaceX has a backup launch window scheduled for Sunday. This top-secret operation remains focused on national security objectives from the California Central Coast.
