"WorldView Legion Satellites Set for Inaugural Launch from Vandenberg SFB"

SpaceX is set to launch a pair of commercial Earth-observation satellites, WorldView Legion 1 and 2, from Vandenberg Space Force Base. The launch is scheduled for Wednesday morning and will mark the fourth mission of April for SpaceX from the base. The satellites, built by Maxar Space Systems, will provide data for various purposes including national security and monitoring natural disasters. The first-stage booster is expected to return to Vandenberg after liftoff, potentially causing sonic booms in nearby counties.
