SpaceX Continues Successful Missions with OneWeb and Axiom Launches.

TL;DR Summary
SpaceX successfully launched its 232nd mission, the 33rd Falcon 9 mission this year, from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, deploying 21 satellites into low Earth orbit for OneWeb and Iridium. The launch was delayed by a day after the Falcon 9 aborted moments before liftoff. The first stage of the rocket landed as the second stage entered orbit, and SpaceX used a shortened nozzle on the Merlin 1D engine. The Iridium satellites are backup spacecraft, while OneWeb's LEO constellation will grow to 634 satellites.
