SpaceX achieved a historic milestone with the world's first reflight of an orbital class rocket.
SES-10 is a geostationary communications satellite owned and operated by SES and designed and manufactured by Airbus Defence and Space on the Eurostar E3000 platform. It is positioned at the 67° West position thanks to an agreement with the Andean Community to use the Simón Bolivar 2 satellite network. It replaces AMC-3 and AMC-4 to provide enhanced coverage and significant capacity expansion.
