Ventura, CA — Starlink 17-31

SpaceX launched 25 Starlink satellites from Vandenberg SFB's SLC-4E at approximately 7:58 AM PDT on March 13. Veteran booster B1071, on a record- tying 32nd flight, landed on the drone ship "Of Course I Still Love You" in the Pacific about 8.5 minutes after liftoff. Vandenberg had pre-warned residents in Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, and Ventura counties to expect sonic booms from the mission. The ascent sonic boom propagated southeast and was detected in Ventura and Newbury Park approximately 12 minutes after launch, consistent with the high-altitude propagation pattern seen in previous Vandenberg launches.
