The rocket blasted off at 7:15 a.m. EDT (1115 GMT) with a top secret spy satellite for the National Reconnaissance Office. Monday's mission marked the 33rd flight of a Falcon 9 rocket, and the fourth time one of the vehicle's first stages has landed at Cape Canaveral. Follow Stephen Clark on Twitter: @StephenClark1.
