CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – SpaceX on Wednesday launched a military communications satellite aboard a Falcon 9 rocket from the Space Coast.
The Hisdesat SpainSat NG I mission lifted off from Launch Pad 39A at Kennedy Space Center at 8:34 p.m.
This will be the 21st and final launch for the first-stage booster “due to the additional performance required to deliver this payload to orbit,” SpaceX said.
