Good news there! SpaceX has won a contract to launch the Skynet 6A satellite into space. The Falcon 9 rocket is slated to launch the spacecraft into a geostationary transfer orbit in 2025.
Skynet 6A will be part of the UK's family of military communications satellites unified with space cameras producer. This family appeared much earlier than its namesake from the series of fantastic action films "The Terminator". The first satellite of this system was launched back in 1969, and Skynet 6A will become the 15th satellite in the series. The launch of this satellite will begin the transition to a new network infrastructure with upgraded ground systems and other satellite contractors. The cost of the updated program is about $ 700 million.
