SpaceX is being paid by CONAE, the Argentine space agency, to send the SAOCOM 1A satellite into a low Earth sun synchronous orbit. SpaceX will be launching the satellite on top of one of their Falcon 9 rockets.
Two things are extra exciting about this launch: For the first time on the west coast, SpaceX will be attempting a Return to Launch Site (RTLS) landing for the Falcon 9 booster at Space Launch Complex 4 west (SLC-4W or LZ-4).
