TL;DR Summary

A sonic boom from a SpaceX Falcon 9 launch was heard across the Treasure Coast in Florida, with residents in Martin, St. Lucie, and Indian River counties reporting the loud noise. The launch, which took place at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, involved the deployment of 22 Starlink satellites for high-speed internet services. Sonic booms occur when an aircraft or vehicle travels faster than the speed of sound, creating a shock wave. The next SpaceX launch is scheduled for Sunday evening from NASA's Kennedy Space Center.
