SpaceX is set to launch a rocket just after sunrise Saturday from the California coast.
The Falcon 9 might be visible from around Southern California after it launches from Vandenberg Space Force Base northwest of Santa Barbara. The launch is scheduled for 6:27 a.m., just minutes after sunrise.

The launch was previously scheduled for Friday morning, but was delayed to allow teams to complete pre-launch checkouts and data reviews, SpaceX said on Twitter.
After the launch, SpaceX will again attempt to recover the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket being used in the mission by landing it back at the Central Coast base. The rocket will be used in future missions.
This mission will mark the first time a previously used rocket booster has been employed for an National Reconnaissance Office launch. The rocket was used in a reconnaissance satellite launch in February, also from Vandenberg.
