Return to Flight — Iridium-1 Launches 10 Satellites

| SpaceX

SpaceX returned to flight with the Iridium-1 mission from Vandenberg, successfully launching 10 Iridium NEXT satellites and landing the booster on 'Just Read the Instructions.' The four-month stand-down had allowed SpaceX to redesign COPV helium tanks and rebuild SLC-40, which returned to service in December 2017.
