The company launched 10 Iridium satellites into an orbit 625km above the Earth's surface, and, as a bonus, SpaceX also demonstrated its increasing mastery of rocket landings by bringing the first stage booster back to a drone ship off the California coast.
SpaceX has now successfully landed seven rockets back on Earth.
This was their first successful launch since their rocket exploded on the launchpad last year.
