A SpaceX rocket soared into the Monday morning sky, starting off Memorial Day on Florida's Space Coast with a rumble.

Liftoff occurred on time at 7:48 a.m., May 25, from Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. The mission, known as Starlink 10-47, featured a Falcon 9 rocket carrying the latest batch of Starlink internet satellites to orbit.

The rocket rumbled on a northeast trajectory, across the clearing morning sky. Showers had moved through the area overnight, but cleared in time for the liftoff, which marked the 35 of the year for Florida.

No Brevard County sonic booms were heard, as the Falcon 9's first stage booster landed on the A Shortfall of Gravitas drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
