After the launch of the Falcon Heavy earlier this month, SpaceX is preparing for another mission. Later today, the firm will put three satellites in orbit with a single launch. The first is the PAZ, an aperture radar satellite that can generate high-resolution images of the Earth’s surface, even if clouds covering the ground. The second and third are Microsat 2a and 2b. These will be used for broadband communications testing as part of a larger plan to eventually deliver satellite Internet globally. This could be a really good day for SpaceX.
