SpaceX plans to launch a Falcon 9 rocket into low orbit from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California on Sunday, May 3. The flight will be conducted as part of the CAS500-2 mission. Ixbt.com reports this.

This flight will be the 33rd flight of the rocket's first stage. It has previously participated in the NROL-87, SARah-1, SWOT, Transporter, and 20 Starlink missions.


After separation, the first stage of the rocket is expected to return and land at Landing Zone 4 at the Vandenberg Space Force Base.
