SpaceX just launched a mysterious spy satellite toward orbit for a U.S. intelligence agency. Elon Musk's commercial rocket company made a successful liftoff Monday morning from Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Florida. The customer for the launch was the National Reconnaissance Office, a U.S. government agency that develops and maintains spy satellites. Last month, SpaceX made huge strides toward that feat by putting a used rocket back into action. It's planning as many as six more missions with used rockets in 2017.
