SpaceX Completes Launch, Landing At Vandenberg

SpaceX has completed another successful launch, and its first land-based landing, at Vandenberg Air Force Base on Sunday evening, in a spectacularly visible display over Southern California. The SpaceX launch, of the SAOCOM 1A satellite for Argentina, launched at 7:21pm on Sunday evening, leaving a giant luminous cloud visible up and down the California coast. SpaceX also successfully landed the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket next to its launch site, the first on the West Coast.
