SpaceX secures approval for 4th launch pad

SpaceX is getting permission to launch its mainstay Falcon 9 rocket from a second launch pad in Southern California, giving it a fourth launch site for its commercial and US government missions.

The decision, announced Tuesday on the US Space Force’s website, grants a lease to Elon Musk’s company, formally known as Space Exploration Technologies Corp., to lift off from an unused launch pad on Vandenberg Space Force Base.
