A spectacular video has captured the successful launch of Space X’s commercial rocket Falcon 9 as it transported two commercial satellites above the earth’s atmosphere.

The rocket was launched from Space X’s Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 40 on Sunday night and is set to deliver two all-electric satellites for French-based satellite provider Eutelsat and an Asia Broadcast satellite above the earth's atmosphere before falling back down to earth for a soft landing into the sea.

The satellites transported on Sunday were made by Boeing and were unique in the fact that they are the first ever all-electrical satellites, meaning that they do require store liquid fuel, making them much lighter in weight.

SpaceX’s next launch is scheduled for March 21, when a Falcon 9 will deliver a communications satellite into orbit for Thales Alenia Space and the government of Turkmenistan.
