No sonic booms were heard from the launch.
The booster, on its 14th flight, landed on the drone ship "A Shortfall of Gravitas" in the Atlantic Ocean at 8:04 a.m.

The satellites will join the constellation of nearly 8,300 other Starlink satellites, as SpaceX continues to build its network.
Today's launch marked the 109th flight for Falcon 9 rockets and more than 70% of them have been Starlink missions. This was also the 498th booster landing to date.
