SpaceX succesfully launched Intelsat’s Galaxy 37/Horizons-4 (G-37/H-4) satellite to a geosynchronous transfer orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
The satellite, which advances Intelsat’s Galaxy fleet refresh plan, carries a C-band payload that will provide North American capacity for television media and telecommunication network customers. The H-4 Ku-band payload will provide continuity for Intelsat’s mobility, network and U.S. government customers and will be owned jointly by Intelsat and JSAT International, the U.S.-owned subsidiary of SKY Perfect JSAT Corp.
The Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched Crew-5, GPS III-6, Inmarsat I6-F2, CRS-28, and one Starlink mission.
The satellite was manufactured by Maxar.
