Elon Musk's SpaceX launches American spy satellite today

SpaceX launched a spy satellite for the US National Reconnaissance and Space Administration (NRA) on Sunday.

The launch took place at 16:13 Kyiv time from the launch complex at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.

Eight minutes after launch, the first stage of the launch vehicle automatically landed on the pad at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.

This is the second launch and landing for this particular first stage, which also helped launch the NROL-87 spacecraft in February, SpaceX said.
