Falcon 9 • WorldView Legion 5 & 6

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched the third and final pair of WorldView Legion Earth observation satellites for Maxar Technologies, which completes the first block. These series of high-resolution remote sensing satellites operate in a mix of sun-synchronous and mid-inclination orbits. Satellites 5 and 6 will launch into MIO. About eight minutes after liftoff, the first stage booster touched down at Landing Zone 1 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Delayed from Feb. 3.
