SpaceX made it two perfect launches in three days as it blasted off its Falcon 9 . On Monday SpaceX launched 10 satellites to bolster the global data communications network for the Virginia-based company, Iridium.

The EchoStar 105/SES-11 blasted off from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, Florida. Its satellite was due to be deployed approximately 36 minutes after liftoff. It’s the third time SpaceX has used one of its landed boosters for a second flight.
