SpaceX has launched its Falcon 9 rocket which carried Luxembourg made communication satellite into space. This is the second flight of this year for Elon Musk’s privately owned Space Exploration Technologies Corp. The first flight of Falcon 9 this year was to set up a secret spacecraft Zuma into space for the US government.
The launch took off from the Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Because of a technical glitch, the launch had to postpone for 24 hours. This launch of SpaceX comes a week after it announced the test launch of its much-awaited Falcon Heavy rocket.
