Falcon 9 launches SES-22
Posted: Wed, Jul 6, 2022, 7:35 PM ET (2335 GMT)
SpaceX successfully launched a C-band communications satellite for SES June 29. The Falcon 9 lifted off from Cape Canaveral, Florida, at 5:04 pm EDT (2104 GMT) and deployed the SES-22 satellite into geostationary transfer orbit 33 minutes later. SES-22 is the first of six geostationary satellites that SES will launch to migrate broadcast customers into a narrower swath of C-band as part of an FCC effort to free up spectrum for 5G services. SES said it's on track to complete that C-band clearing by December 2023, making it eligible for nearly $4 billion under the FCC plan.
