SpaceX successfully launched the NROL-153 mission on January 9, 2025, at 7:53 p.m. PST (10:53 p.m. EST, 0353 UTC), from Space Launch Complex 4E at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The Falcon 9 rocket carried an undisclosed number of Starshield satellites to low Earth orbit for the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) as part of the NRO's proliferated architecture constellation.
