An evening launch of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carrying 22 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4 East at Vandenberg Space Force Base is seen over the Pacific Ocean from Encinitas, California, US, April 1.

US private space company SpaceX launched 22 more Starlink satellites into orbit on Monday.

The satellites were launched aboard a Falcon 9 rocket at 7:30pm Monday from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, according to SpaceX.

Falcon 9's first-stage booster landed on the "Of Course I Still Love You" droneship stationed in the Pacific Ocean.

The company later confirmed the deployment of the 22 satellites.

Starlink will deliver high-speed broadband Internet to locations where access has been unreliable, expensive or completely unavailable, according to SpaceX.
