CAPE CAVERNAL, Florida — It looks like another successful mission is in the books for SpaceX.

The company launched a Falcon Nine from Cape Canaveral, Fla., this morning.

The rocket was loaded with Starlink broadcast satellites, which the company says are designed and deployed to provide people with internet access in remote parts of the globe.

This is the 15th time they've sent a load of the satellites up.

Today's mission also marks the 100th successful flight of a Falcon rocket.
